Pakistan Terror Attack | Lashkar plans to send more terror boats
- 5 years ago
Pakistan Terror Attack: At least 200 Lashkar-e-Taiba terrorists who have received intensive training in marine operations, are waiting to land on Indian shores from Pakistan. The Pakistani boat, which was intercepted by the Indian Coast Guard on New Year's Eve and blew itself up, was part of this Lashkar "contingent", sources say.
Highly placed officials in the intelligence establishment say that the boat incident was just the beginning of Lashkar's latest plot against India and they are expecting more such attempts in the near future. "The threat persists and we have strong reasons to believe that many more such attempts are likely to be made in the future. A huge number of terrorists who have been specifically trained for such jobs are waiting for their turn to attack Indian interests," said a senior official who oversaw the operation on Thursday morning.
Sources say that the four people present in the boat were in constant touch with their handlers in Karachi. "Pakistani handlers based in Karachi were in touch with them. The men in the boat were also communicating with some unknown people whose location we have traced to Thailand," said sources with the National Technical Research Organisation (NTRO). They also confirmed that the four people were in touch with personnel of the Pakistan Maritime Security Agency. The Agency is tasked with conducting maritime, military and multi-mission operations and operates under Pakistan's Ministry of Defence (MoD) during peacetime.
