Pak Duo Held Guilty In Aiding Militants
In a new twist to the historic 26/11 attacks last year on the country’s commercial capital, a father-son duo has been arrested from the northern Italian city of Brescia on charges of aiding the financial transactionsrequired to ensure smooth phone communications between the terrorists and the militants’ high commanders during the carnage. The duo has a finance based agency.
Identified by the police as Mohammad Yaqub Janjua, 60, and Aamer Yaqub Janjua, 31, they have been charged of assisting serious anti-social activities that includes international terrorism as the main highlight.
Interestingly, the money transfers have been funded to another Pakistani citizen who has apparently never visited Italy before. The Italian Police has closely watching and interrogating after being warned by India authorities and the FBI. Off late, most of the money transfers have been en route Italy itself. Stefano Fonzi, the head of anti-terror police in Brescia, said that Italian police began the probe in December last year.
Further probing can conclude whether these two have any links with David Coleman Headley and Tahawwur Hussain Rana, the two arrested suspected LeT militants.
