New Delhi: As Islam­abad con­tin­ues to be in denial mode, India is com­pil­ing evi­dence about the role of Pakistan-based ele­ments in the ter­ror strikes for shar­ing it with the world besides the neigh­bour very soon.

The evi­dence, being put together, includes the con­fes­sion of the lone ter­ror­ist held in Mum­bai ter­ror attack Ajmal Amir Qasab, log­book recov­ered from the ves­sel in which the 10 ter­ror­ists came from Karachi, records of satel­lite phone used by the attack­ers and tran­script of con­ver­sa­tions between the attack­ers and their han­dlers in Pak­istan, the sources said.

The dossier will also include the cor­rob­o­ra­tive evi­dence track­ing the jour­ney of the attack­ers from Karachi to Mum­bai, they said.

The evi­dence will mostly include Qasab’s con­fes­sion to the police wherein he has given details of how he became a moti­vated ter­ror­ist of Lashkar-e-Taiba from a nor­mal youth of Farid­kot in 741Pakistan’s Pun­jab province.

Inves­ti­ga­tors have found evi­dence to show that the ter­ror­ists, who struck at the Taj Hotel, Tri­dent Hotel and Nari­man House on Novem­ber 26, were in touch with their han­dlers in Karachi even while their three-day engage­ment with secu­rity forces was on.

As the armed engage­ment was being tele­cast live by Indian TV chan­nels, the LeT com­man­ders in Pak­istan were found giv­ing direc­tions to the attack­ers like ‘set ablaze the hotel’ and ‘throw grenades’ on the crowds out­side the hotels and Nari­man House.

The evi­dence will be shared with Pak­istan along with the US, UK, China and other coun­tries which have influ­ence on Islamabad.
