US stand with the people of India, Donald Trump tweets

Washington : Supporting fight against terrorism, the United States of America President Donald Trump on Monday expressed strong support to the people of India. His tweet comes on the day when India remembers 26/11 Mumbai Attacks in 2008.

"On the ten-year anniversary of the Mumbai terror attack, the U.S. stands with the people of India in their quest for justice. The attack killed 166 innocents, including six Americans. We will never let terrorists win, or even come close to winning!" Mr Trump tweeted this morning.

Earlier, the US had announced a new reward of $5 million for helping secure the arrest of those who masterminded the 26/11 attacks.

The US government announced the reward under its Department of State's Rewards for Justice (RFJ) programme "for information leading to the arrest or conviction in any country of any individual who committed, conspired to commit, or aided or abetted" the execution of the 26/11 Mumbai attacks.

It is the third such reward offered by the US after the State Department announced bounties of $10 million for Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) founder Hafiz Mohammad Saeed and $2 million for Hafiz Abdul Rahman Makki, another senior leader of the terror group.
