Lashkar-e-Taiba,who are dependent on the Pakistan military,were involved in the attacks.

Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Taiba, responsible for the Mumbai terror attack, was on Tuesday blamed by an Afghan intelligence official for last week's car bomb and suicide attacks that killed 16 people, including 9 Indians, in the heart of the capital.

The Afghan Taliban insurgents already claimed responsibility for the attacks after a car bomb exploded and gunmen wearing suicide vests hidden under burqas stormed residential hotels popular with foreigners. At least 56 people were wounded.

Saeed Ansari, a spokesman for Afghanistan's intelligence service, said that his agency has evidence that Pakistanis, specifically Lashkar-e-Taiba, were involved in the attacks.

"We are very close to the exact proof and evidence that the attack on the Indian guest house ... is not the work of the Afghan Taliban but this attack was carried out by Lashkar-e-Taiba network, who are dependent on the Pakistan military," Ansari said in an interview.

He also said one of the attackers was heard speaking Urdu.
