| Pak training Indians for terror project: Report | | | AGENCIES
New Delhi Feb 1: Pakistan’s intelligence agency, the ISI is planning to carry out terror attacks in the country and has put together a team of Indian Jihadis in Karachi for the same, a media report claimed on Monday.
According to the said reports the alleged plot has been revealed to investigators by terror suspects David Coleman Headley and Mohammad Amjad Khwaja.
The FBI had arrested Headley in Chicago in October last year. He is accused of conducting a recce of Mumbai and several other Indian cities on behalf of Pakistan-based terror group Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) for the 26/11 attacks.
‘Khwaja, who is a member of Bangladesh-based Harkat-ul Jihad-i Islami (HuJI), was nabbed on January 18, and is currently in the custody of Hyderabad police, the report said adding that the plot has been named “Karachi project”, details of which Headley has shared with FBI sleuths.
According to sources, Headley has told the FBI that Indian nationals are being regularly trained for terror activities both by the ISI and the LeT. Once trained, these Indian jihadis are sent back to India for “terror projects” from time to time.
HuJI’s Khwaja, who was arrested by the Chennai police following his return from Saudi Arabia on a Pakistani passport, too has told investigators that the ISI-LeT Karachi project was a reality. Khwaja is also believed to have revealed that he met alleged Indian Mujahideen terrorists Amir Raza Khan and Riyaz Bhatkal in Karachi, both of whom are staying in Karachi’s Defence Enclave, probably under the ISI protection.
