| [Iran Press TV Latest] Pakistan says it has arrested a key suspect linked with the outlawed Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) who had allegedly facilitated the Mumbai attacks late last year. The Special Investigation Unit of the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA), which is leading Pakistan's probe into the November 26, 2008 Mumbai incident, said on Thursday that it has detained LeT operative Jamil Ahmed. The Wednesday arrest was made on the basis of information provided by some suspects under interrogation, the Special Investigation Unit said. An FIA source, speaking on condition of anonymity, described Ahmed, a resident of Battagram in the unruly North West Frontier Province, as an 'important suspect'. Ahmed is suspected of facilitating the acts of terrorism in Mumbai on November 26, the source said. |
