Really wonder what good is all his information coming out is gonna be of. Send dossiers that Pakis will deny?
Indian governement requires to wear " choories".
MUMBAI: The arrest of 10 LeT members by Pakistan's Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) immediately after 26/11 was eyewash, Zabiuddin Ansari, alias Abu Jundal, has told the crime branch of the police.
After international pressure, particularly American, mounted on their government, Pakistani army officers told LeT operatives to clear out of training camps since raids were likely to begin, Jundal said during his interrogation. "On the army's directions, training camps of the Bait-ul-Mujahideen in Muridke and Rawalpindi were cleared. The FIA, then, just to show something like genuine action, arrested the 10 LeT men, including Zaki-ur-Rehman Lakhvi, Abu al-Qama and Zarrar Shah. It was drama. Instead of jail, they were kept in luxurious guesthouses with all amenities," Jundal told the police. "All 10 were released soon, told to remain underground and not speak to the media."
About the camps, a police officer said, "Jundal told us that in the first week of December 2008, Pakistani army officers contacted LeT second-in-command Yusuf Muzammil, who in turn told the outfit's members to wind up the camps."
Jundal's revelation can be a major embarrassment for Pakistan, which has consistently denied its role in the November 26, 2008, terror attack on Mumbai. But this is not the first time that a terrorist has spilled the beans on Pakistan's role in the episode. That the country's state actors were involved in it was made amply clear through the accounts of Ajmal Kasab, the lone survivor among the 26/11 attackers, and the Pakistani American double agent David Headley.
Jundal had earlier mentioned the names of Pakistani army officers like Major Iqbal and Colonel Shah, who played a key role in the planning, coordination and execution of 26/11 along with LeT commanders. Meanwhile, Mumbai Police are upgrading their list of wanted terror suspects as Jundal has revealed quite a few names of Indians who have taken shelter in Pakistan.
