Mumbai attackers den traced near Karachi: report

Islamabad, Feb 15 (PTI) The house where the Mumbai terror
attackers and its planners camped before and after launching
their deadly operation has been unearthed in Pakistan's Sindh
province, a media report said Sunday.

A large map of the world with Mumbai and the sea route to
it marked out prominently, and newspapers, including those
carrying stories about the November 26 Mumbai carnage were
found at the house, now sealed by investigators, Geo TV said.

The TV footage of the unkept house, that is believed to
have been used by the terrorists including Ajmal Amir Kasab,
the lone surviving gunman, showed among other things a picture
of a speed boat, equipment used in fishing vessels and a large
amount of medicines.

The channel captured images of mattresses and blankets
strewn around, in what it said were traces of a once
well-furnished living quarter located in Dori, 40 kilometres
from Karachi, from where the terrorists sailed for Mumbai.

Islamic literature was also found stacked, it said.

The caretaker of the now-deserted house told the channel
that he was asked to stay away from the place.

Geo also quoted local residents as saying that they saw
seven people residing in the house and using a motor launch.

After months of denial, Pakistan this week admitted that
part of the conspiracy for the Mumbai terror attacks was
hatched inside the country and said some of the suspects were
in its custody. PTI WAJ
