In an important breakthrough, Lashkar-e-Tayyaba militant Abu Jundal has admitted two of the four voice samples of the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks he was made to listen to during interrogation were his.
The two voice samples Jundal admitted to are of telephonic conversations between the Karachi control room and the militants at Chabad House and Trident Hotel. In fact, in the Chabad House conversation, Jundal is heard ordering the militants to kill hostages. Jundal admitted this indeed was his voice.
Highly-placed sources close to the investigation said following Jundal’s deportation from Saudi Arabia in a covert operation, a seven-member team from Mumbai’s crime branch rushed to New Delhi with four voice samples of phone conversations between 26/11 terrorists and their Pakistani handlers. The voice samples were taken from different locations like Taj Hotel, CST station, Trident Hotel and Chabad House.
During interrogation, Jundal admitted that the voice in the Chabad House and Trident Hotel conversations were his, while rejecting the other two, though sources said the other voices are also very similar to that of Jundal.
Senior investigating officials said this was confirmation of how dangerous and ruthless a militant Jundal is.
