The prosecution today opened its final arguments in the case saying the neighbouring country's Army was also involved in the dastardly attack.
"The conspiracy of the 26/11 attack was hatched on Pakistan soil and inevitable inference can be drawn that the attack was State-sponsored," Special Public Prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam argued.
According to the prosecution, Kasab and the nine other slain terrorists had undergone military and intelligence training at the hands of terror outfit Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), which was supervised by certain officers of the Pakistan Army.
"Kasab in his confession has said one Major General was present during their training and had supervised them. The name of the major general was deliberately not revealed to the attackers as he occupies a senior position in the army," Nikam said.
Alleging that the LeT and the Army were hand-in glove, the prosecution said a deliberate attempt was also made to conceal Pakistan's involvement in the attack.
"The attackers were given fake identity cards under fictitious Indian names. One of the terrorist Imran Babbar had contacted a TV news channel and had claimed that he was from Hyderabad in India," Nikam argued. |
