Have Ajmal Kasab's associates been arrested in Karachi?

Karachi, Feb. 9 (ANI): Pakistani Intelligence agencies have claimed that they have arrested three men for their alleged links to Ajmal Kasab, the lone surviving terrorist involved in the November 26 to 29 terror attacks on Mumbai.

The Daily Times sources disclosed that Federal Investigation Agency in collaboration with other intelligence agencies had detained three men from different parts of Karachi for their alleged association with Kasab.

The detainees were reportedly taken to Islamabad where an investigation was in progress.

Earlier a private TV channel had claimed that the Pakistani dossier on the Mumbai terror attacks was ready and the PPP-led Government would file cases against five Pakistanis, including Ajmal Kasab, for planning the attacks.

The Interior Ministry's report into the Mumbai carnage is speculated to state that the attacks were not planned in Pakistan or India, but in a European country.

They also said that cases would be filed against five Pakistanis, including Kasab, for planning the Mumbai attacks.

"The conspiracy was hatched outside Pakistan. But Kasab and his accomplices used Pakistan territory by using Internet lines of the country. But no Pakistani official was involved. There will be legal action against Kasab and others in Pakistan. Pakistan may also want access to Kasab for investigation."

Meanwhile, the Defence Committee of the Cabinet (DCC) would meet on Monday and review the investigation report prepared by the Pakistani authorities on the information provided by India on Mumbai attacks. (ANI)
