| [PTINEWS] The alleged financier of the 2008 Mumbai terror attack, who supplied nearly Rs 4 million to the LeT men, has been sent to judicial remand after the Pak anti-terrorism court hearing the case did not allow the FIA to have his custody for more days. Sufayan Zafar has joined the other six suspects - Abdul Wajid, Mazhar Iqbal, Hammad Amin Sadiq, Shahid Jameel Riaz, Jamil Ahmed and Mohammad Younis Anjum - in the high-security Adiala Jail in Rawalpindi, where they are lodged since 2009. Lashkar-e-Taiba ...the Army of the Pure,an Ahl-e-Hadith terror organization founded by Hafiz Saeed. LeT masquerades behind the Jamaat-ud-Dawa facade within Pakistain and periodically blows things up and kills people in India. Despite the fact that it is banned, always an interesting concept in Pakistain, the organization remains an blatant tool and perhaps an arm of the ISI... (LeT) operations commander Zaki-ur Rehman Lakhvi, the criminal mastermind of the Mumbai attack, is living at The anti-terrorism court sent Zafar on the judicial remand on Saturday noting that the Federal Investigation Agency had been given enough time to probe the suspect, a source in the FIA told PTI today. He is accused of providing Rs 3.98 million to co-accused Riaz through account no. 2338-2 of the Moslem Commercial Bank's Drigh Road branch in Bloody Karachi ...formerly the capital of Pakistain, now merely its most important port and financial center. It is among the largest cities in the world, with a population of 18 million, most of whom hate each other and many of whom are armed and dangerous... and account no. 2464-0 of the Allied Bank's Drigh Colony branch in Karachi prior to the Mumbai terror attack. During interrogation by the FIA, he was quizzed over providing millions of rupees to the suspected holy warriors of the Mumbai attack case, his relations with them and other absconding suspects, the source said. "The FIA has interrogated Zafar for providing financial assistance to the co-accused in the Mumbai case besides his connection with the holy warriors and the LeT. He was also interrogated for the channel/source from which he got the huge sum of money to provide it to the co-accused," he said. Zafar was absconding after being declared proclaimed offender in the Mumbai case. He was tossed in the slammer Youse'll never take me alive coppers!... [BANG!]... Ow!... I quit! early this month (on August 3 or 4) from his hideout in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa ... formerly NWFP, still Terrorism Central... province. A resident of Gujrawala district of Punjab 1.) Little Orphan Annie's bodyguard 2.) A province of Pakistain ruled by one of the Sharif brothers 3.) A province of India. It is majority (60 percent) Sikh and Hindoo (37 percent), which means it has relatively few Moslem riots.... - some 80 kms from Lahore, Zafar is among 21 other absconding suspects wanted in this high-profile case. According to court documents, the other suspects who allegedly arranged funds for the attacks include undertrial Ahmed and Anjum and proclaimed offenders Mohammad Usman Zia, Mukhtar Ahmed, Abbas Nasir and Javed Iqbal. The FIA wanted more time to investigate him further, the source said, adding that the agency would indict him along with the seven other suspects of the case in the trial court after completing his challan. The trial court will resume the hearing of the case on September 7 after over a month-long court summer vacation. Defence lawyers are of the view that indicting Zafar along with the seven accused may further delay the conclusion of the case, which has been pending in an anti-terrorism court (ATC) since 2009, due to repeating the exercise of cross- examining witnesses in the light of the new arrest. |
