All terrorists were from Pakistan: Mumbai police
December 2nd, 2008 - 9:48 pm ICT by IANSMumbai, Dec 2 (IANS) All the terrorists involved in the murderous Nov 26 attacks here had come from Pakistan and they did not have any local assistance, Mumbai Police Commissioner Hassan Gafoor said here Tuesday. “All the terrorists were from Pakistan. Some of them were trained for a year while others were trained for a year and a half by ex-armymen,” Gafoor told reporters here.
“They (terrorists) did not have any local assistance. So far, we have not found any woman involved in the conspiracy. Their strategy was to take upper positions and fire from there,” Gafoor added.
When asked if India’s most wanted fugitive Dawood Ibrahim funded the terrorists, he said: “Till now nothing of that sort has come out in the investigation. But we are investigating the attacks from all possible angles.”
