The Anti-Terrorist Court (ATC) trying suspects accused of criminal masterminding the 2008 terrorist attacks in Mumbai has decided that the findings of a commission that visited India to gather evidence cannot be used in the case, a defence lawyer on Tuesday said.Riaz Akram Cheema said the court found that the report by the eight-member commission had no legal value because the commission did not cross-examine four witnesses in India.
The court is trying seven suspects, including the alleged commander of the banned group Lashkar-e-Taiba
...the
Army of the Pure,an Ahl-e-Hadith terror organization founded by Hafiz Saeed. LeT masquerades behind the Jamaat-ud-Dawa facade within Pakistain and periodically blows things up and kills people in India. Despite the fact that it is
banned, always an interesting concept in Pakistain, the organization remains an blatant tool and perhaps an arm of the ISI...
, which has been blamed for the 2008 attacks that killed 166 people.
The Pak commission that went to India in March included defence lawyers and prosecutors. But Cheema said India did not allow them to cross-examine key witnesses, including the lone attacker who survived.
