Khwaja Haris Ahmed sought the cancellation of an earlier

agreement between India and Pakistan that did not allow members of the commission to cross-examine the Indian witnesses during a visit to Mumbai in March last year. Special Prosecutor Ali told the court that this agreement was no longer in force. The judge asked the prosecution to submit a copy of the new agreement regarding the judicial commission�s second visit to India and adjourned the case till February 23. Ali also informed the judge that the defence lawyers had not submitted their passports and other documents to complete formalities for the commission's visit. The commission will cross-examine four key Indian witnesses - the police officer who led the probe into the Mumbai attacks, the magistrate who recorded the confession of Ajmal Kasab, the lone surviving attacker, and two doctors who performed the autopsies of the attackers. Kasab was hanged last year in a jail in Pune. Following the commission's last visit to Mumbai, its findings were rejected by the anti-terrorism court because the panel did not have the power to cross-examine witnesses. Following negotiations between officials of the two countries in December, India agreed to allow the Pakistani commission to cross-examine the witnesses. Indian officials also sought an assurance that the panel�s findings will not again be rejected by the anti-terrorism court.
