Retired Assistant Police Commissioner Samsher Khan Pathan has claimed former Mumbai police commissioner Param Bir Singh "destroyed" a mobile phone seized from the 26/11 terror attack convict Mohammed Ajmal Kasab.
Senior Police Inspector Ramesh Mahale tells Sheela Bhatt that the Headley-Rana angle will not affect his case.
'Kasab had told us he and the other terrorists had been warned that if they were caught, their families would vanish.'
The investigating officer in the 26/11 terror attack case, who had helped build a water-tight case against Pakistani terrorist Mohammed Ajmal Amir Kasab, has resigned, police sources said.
A Mumbai court on Monday issued a production warrant against suspected Laskhar-e-Tayiba terrorist Sayed Zabiuddin alias Abu Jindal, who was arrested in Delhi for his alleged complicity in the 26/11 terror attack. The warrant was issued by Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate P S Rathod, on an application by Special Public Prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam and 26/11 case Investigating Officer Ramesh Mahale.
A Pakistani judicial commission is likely to visit India next month to interview key persons linked to the probe into the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks.
A Pakistani judicial commission will arrive in Mumbai on February 3 to record the statements of key persons involved in Mumbai attack probe.
Police Inspector Ramesh Mahale may be the first investigation officer who will testify in a neighbouring country's court case through video-conferencing, if the Pakistani anti-terrorist court agrees to the appeal mad by prosecutors arguing the 26/11 case in Pakistan.
While describing LeT's plan to project the 26/11 attack as "Hindu Terror", Maria wrote, "If everything went according to plan, Kasab would have died as Chaudhari and the media would have blamed 'Hindu terrorists' for the attack."
India has given a written assurance to Pakistan that a legal panel of that country will be allowed to cross examine four witnesses in the 26/11 attacks case when it visits Mumbai for the second time.
The commission in 2012 had recorded the statement of these witnesses but due to an 'official understanding' between the Pakistani and Indian governments, had not cross-examined them.
The deposition of Indian witnesses in the 26/11 terror attack case began in Mumbai on Tuesday before an eight-member Pakistani Judicial Commission amid tight security arrangements.
A judicial team from Pakistan is scheduled to visit India on September 4 to continue Islamabad's probe into the 26/11 terror strike.
We continue to be what we were before 26/11-- sitting ducks, says Mahesh Vijapurkar.
