According to PTI, India on August 1 handed over to Pakistan a fresh dossier of evidence on the Mumbai terrorist attacks of November 2008 and pressed it to prosecute the prime accused and Jama’at-ud-Da’awa (the Lashkar-e-Toiba [LeT] front) chief Hafiz Mohammed Saeed, saying there was "enough" proof to do so. The dossier, comprising a seven-page summary and 60 pages of annexure, contains replies to queries posed by Pakistan with regard to investigation and legal process involved in the 26/11 attacks which were carried out by Lashkar-e-Toiba. The dossier was handed over by T. C. A. Raghavan, Joint Secretary (Pakistan) in the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), to Pakistan's Deputy High Commissioner Rifat Masood when she was called to the MEA, Foreign Secretary Nirupama Rao said.

A plot by the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) to target forward Army posts and other sensitive installations in border Districts has been averted by the troops who foiled an infiltration attempt by three fidayeen (suicide squad) militants from Sabjian in the Mandi sector of Poonch District in the night in which one infiltrator was killed while two others were forced to retrieve. The infiltrators, all top militants and members of LeT’s suicide squad, had been launched from Cobra 1 post of army in PoK. The intruders took positions at an isolated forest area and opened indiscriminate firing on the troops, who retaliated. The militants also lobbed grenades on the Army personnel. In approximately an hour long encounter close to the LoC, the Army personnel killed one of the infiltrators while two others retrieved to PoK taking cover of darkness. There were no casualties on Army side in the exchange of firing. According to sources, maps of Army posts in forward locations and other sensitive installations of Poonch have been recovered from the possession of the slain militant. More documents seized from the spot confirmed that all three militants were Pakistanis and part of a suicide squad of the LeT outfit. In addition to sensitive maps, other recoveries made from the encounter site include one AK-47 rifle, five magazines, four Chinese grenades, one Pathan suit, 130 AK bullets, a large quantity of dry fruit, mobile phones, batteries, chargers, two wireless sets and one compass.

Ahead of the Independence Day on August 15, the Pakistan-based terrorist outfit Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) is planning to target three major cities - Delhi, Kolkata and Hyderabad - Union Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) officials said, reports Times of India. Intelligence agencies have given specific inputs that the LeT is planning to target the three cities in the run-up to the Independence Day, an unnamed official said. The Union Government has already shared the information with the Governments of West Bengal and Andhra Pradesh besides informing Delhi Police for necessary action. "The next 10 days are very crucial. We are taking all necessary steps to foil the designs of LeT to strike at the three cities," an official said. The intelligence input shared included an interrogation report of some recent arrested terrorist along the Line of Control (LoC) who claimed that they had been tasked to meet some of the terror cells in these cities to carry out attacks ahead of the Independence Day.

According to The Hindu, security was tightened at the World Badminton Championship scheduled to begin in Hyderabad, capital of Andhra Pradesh, on August 10 following specific information by the Intelligence Bureau (IB) that the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) is planning to target it. The information relayed by the Intelligence Bureau to authorities in Andhra Pradesh was that terrorist elements would attempt to strike at the international players as they did against Sri Lankan cricketers in Pakistan recently. Top-ranked badminton players are scheduled to take part in the World Championships slated to be held at Gatchibowli. The threat of an attack at the international sporting event came a day after intelligence inputs suggested that LeT operatives may target Hyderabad, New Delhi and Kolkata around Independence Day (August 15).

On August 12, reinforcing the Pakistan link to the November 26, 2008 Mumbai terrorist attacks, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) told the special court in Mumbai that its probe had established that the terrorists came from Karachi in Pakistan, reports The Hindu. In a testimony at the trial of the lone surviving Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) militant Mohammed Ajmal Amir alias Kasab, an FBI forensic expert, giving evidence for the first time in India in a terrorism-related case, said the terrorists had used Global Positioning System (GPS), a satellite navigation system, to locate targets. Deposing before Special Judge M.L. Tahaliyani, the FBI official said the GPS devices recovered by the Mumbai Police from the slain terrorists indicated plans for a return journey from Mumbai to Karachi and Rawalpindi. He added, “Way Point” data retrieved from the GPS devices pointed to the route from Karachi to Mumbai and also positions between these two cities. He also said that he had examined five GPS devices and a satellite phone.

A US representative of the Yamaha motor company deposing live on August 13 from the Federal Bureau Investigation (FBI) office in Los Angeles via a video-conference link set up in the trial court next to the Arthur Road Jail, said the outboard motor recovered by Mumbai Police from the 10 Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) terrorists was among the ones sent by the company in Japan to Pakistan, reports Times of India. This was for the second day running US witnesses pointed out the Pakistan connection in the November 26, 2008 terrorist attack in Mumbai. This was also the first technologically aided long-distance testimony in the trial. The American who was identified by an FBI agent in the US, who in turn was identified on video by an FBI agent present in the Mumbai courtroom was examined by special public prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam to prove that a Yamaha engine recovered from the inflatable dinghy used by the terrorists to make their way into the Mumbai shores was from Pakistan. The witness, whose identity special judge M. L. Tahaliyani has barred from being revealed, said, ‘‘Vehicle model Yamaha angular 40 was dispatched to Business and Engineering Trends in Pakistan on January 20, 2008. It was sent from Japan to Karachi seaport.’’

A top ‘commander’ of the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) was killed by the Security Forces (SFs) in an encounter at village Ladda in the Mahore area of Reasi District on August 17, Daily Excelsior reported. Deputy Inspector General of Police (Udhampur-Reasi range), Gulzar Singh Slathia, said a team of the Army, Police and Special Operations Group was carrying out search operations in Mahore forests following an intercept of LeT that a militant, injured in an encounter with the SFs at Gajna Top in Mahore last week, had taken shelter in a hamlet awaiting treatment. A Police team which observed his movement is reported to have asked him to surrender. However, the militant lobbed a couple of grenades towards the troops, who retaliated killing the militant on the spot. The slain militant has been identified as Altaf Ahmed, a resident of Ladda. He was operating in parts of Reasi District for more than three years and was involved in several subversive activities. From his possession, Police recovered four grenades, three detonators, one set, one pouch and some documents.

The Prime Minister’s warning was based on intercepts of chatter among terrorist leaders, including November 26, 2008 Mumbai terrorist attack accused Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) operatives Zaki-ur Rahman Lakhvi, Zarar Shah and Abu al Qama, adds Times of India. The intercepts pointed to a plot for another massive terrorist attack via the sea route involving local LeT modules instead of Pakistani militants. The conspiracy has not ripened yet because of the disarray among the local collaborators of the LeT due to a crackdown on the Indian Mujahideen (IM).

The Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) has enforced a new diktat in parts of Jammu and Kashmir asking people not to watch television, Times of India reported on August 18. LeT militants operating in the Banihal heights of Ramban District have imposed a ban on watching TV - terming it a ‘un-islamic’ activity. Lashkar militants have reportedly warned villagers of dire consequences if they do not stop watching television. In a recently issued diktat, they have described the television as an epicentre of all problems and blame the same for impregnating evil thoughts in the mind of villagers. In addition to resorting to violence, the Lashkar militants also reportedly pasted a pamphlet on the boundary wall of a mosque.

The Union Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) and various other Security Forces had categorically cautioned the Gujarat Government that the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) is preparing to infiltrate its cadres through the sea route in villages and towns located north of Koteshwar and Mandvi ports. LeT intercepts had suggested that their supporters in border areas in Gujarat were to arrange for motorized boats near Koteshwar and Mandvi. The MHA warning had said fishermen would be involved in the landing activity. The alert warned that patrolling activities along the coast need to be intensified and fishermen should be closely watched as certain industrial installations may also be targeted along the coast. Reports indicate that areas north of Koteshwar between Kori and Padala creeks are vulnerable for cross-border infiltration. Another focus of intelligence agencies is reportedly the Savla Pir and Kotri areas, which are also vulnerable areas for infiltration.

If you ask me if I have any definite proof, we may not have that, but I have my apprehensions. These people, you do not know how they work," Gogoi said. On being asked about any intelligence input on whether the LeT may target Assam, he said "Yes. I have no doubt. According to me, we are not safe." He, however, said the Assam Police is on alert and prepared to thwart any untoward incident. The Chief Minister also said efforts were on to modernise the Assam Police with latest technologies and equipment with the help of the Union Government and the State-run schemes.

According to Times of India, the Government on August 21 handed over fresh information on the November 26, 2008 terrorist attacks (also referred to as 26/11) in Mumbai to Pakistan. Additional information about the role of the Jama’at-ud-Da’awa (also known as Lashkar-e-Toiba [LeT]) chief Hafiz Mohammed Saeed in 26/11 was reportedly given. The information on Saeed, officials claimed, was "cogent and convincing evidence" to prosecute him. Without disclosing details, sources in the Union Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) said the new information comprised "fresh investigation details produced before the trial court in Mumbai". The official also said, "Reading of the material before the Mumbai trial court clearly pointed to the role of Saeed. This warrants further investigation and evidence on record should certainly lead to Saeed's prosecution."

The Interpol on August 25 issued Red Corner Notices (RCN) against Pakistan based Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) founder chief, Hafiz Muhammad Saeed, and mastermind of the November 26, 2008 Mumbai terrorist attacks, Zaki-ur-Rehman Lakhvi, reports PTI. The notices were issued against Saeed and Lakhvi after a Mumbai court issued a non-bailable warrant against the duo for their involvement in the November 26, 2008 (alos known as 26/11) attacks. India also sent proof and requests to issue a similar warrant against LeT commander Zarar Shah and Abu Al Qama. Interpol said it was analysing the evidence against them. The RCN were issued after the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) approached the international agency for the same with non-bailable warrants against them. Special Judge M.L. Tahaliyani had issued the warrants, asking the Mumbai Police Commissioner and the CBI Director to execute them through Interpol and produce the accused before the court soon. Saeed had reportedly provided training to terrorists between 2007 and 2008 at Muridke (LeT headquarters), Manshera, Muzzafarabad, Azizabad, and Paanch Teni in Pakistan and Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir. In December 2008, the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) imposed sanctions on the Jamaat-ud-Dawa (JuD), the front organisation of the banned LeT, declaring it a terrorist outfit, and labelled Saeed and Lakhvi as terrorists. The Council asked all its member countries to freeze their assets and impose a travel ban and arms embargo against them. Besides Saeed and Lakhvi, two other top leaders of the LeT — Haji Muhammad Ashraf and Zaki-ur-Bahaziq — have also been declared terrorists by the UNSC. India had sought a ban on the JuD after the LeT was blamed for the attacks in Mumbai.
