Evidence points to LeT hand in Lone killing

Pakistan-based terrorist outfit Lashkar-e-Tayiba was behind the killing of All Party Hurriyat Conference leader Abdul Gani Lone, official sources said in Srinagar on Wednesday night.

Security agencies had intercepted a conversation between one Abu Hadid operating in Srinagar and a control station of the LeT in Pakistan, which proved that the terrorist organisation was behind the killing, the sources said.

The sources said Hadid had carried out the murder along with two other Pakistani terrorists belonging to the LeT.

The LeT operational commander in Kashmir, Abu Samas, had advised Hadid not to claim responsibility for the attack, the sources said.

The coded message from across the border expressed happiness over the killing and asked Samas to be watchful of the situation, they added.
