Mumbai attacks: ATS sources
Mumbai: Underworld don
Dawood Ibrahim, who is hiding in Pakistan, may be involved in organising
the attack on Mumbai, claimed Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad sources.
The sources said that
the terrorists, who attacked and took hostages at three places in Mumbai,
included two UK-born Pakistanis while one of them was a Yemeni national.
They also added that the
terrorists were heavily drugged and were using Blackberry to communicate.
The information was gathered
by the investigating agencies following the interrogation of 21-year-old
terrorist Ajmal Amir Kamal, a resident of Faridkot, Multan in Pakistan.
Kamal who was captured
on Wednesday revealed that the group numbering 12 travelled from Rawalpindi
to Karachi and them from Karachi to Mumbai.
The port from which they
had boarded is controlled by Dawood. Sources said that all the terrorists
trained and brainwashed in Pakistan.
Kamal's blood and urine
test showed that he was under the influence of drugs, which reportedly
helped the terrorists sustain themselves during the attacks by the security
forces.
