Terrorist Kasav wants to see his mother

Wants to live too

Mohammed Ajmal Amir Kasav, the lone terrorist in police custody, repents his act and wants to return to Pakistan. On Saturday night, he broke down in custody, police sources said.

"Mujhe maaf kar do, mujhe apne desh Pakistan jana hai, meri emmi ke paas'' (Please forgive me, I want to see my mother, I want to go back to my country Pakistan)" Kasav is said to have told policemen interrogating him. "I want to live," he further said.

On Friday, Kasav also expressed his desire to write to his parents in Pakistan. Joint commissioner of police (crime) Rakesh Maria said, "We are legally examining whether he should be granted permission. He told us that he wanted to convince his old parents about how he was misled by the LeT.''

Meanwhile the police are busy collecting evidence to prove that the terrorists who carried out the 26/11 carnage were from Pakistan. The police had recovered several articles suspected to have been carried by the terrorists from the trawler Kuber, hijacked by them to enter Mumbai from Gujarat to Mumbai.

Matchboxes, cigarettes, medical kits, flour, detergent powder, cold drinks and brushes-all of Pakistani make-were recovered from the trawler, the police claimed. They also found two 9mm pistols (made by Diamond Nedi Frontier Arms Company, Peshawar).

Maria on Monday claimed to have identified all 10 terrorists. TOI was the first to mention the names of all terrorists. Three of them hail from Okara district in Punjab province, three from Multan, two from Faislabad, one from Sialkot and one from Dera Ismail Khan.

According to Maria, Ismail Khan, Kasav's partner from Dera Ismail Khan, was the group leader and is believed to have taken part in militant attacks in Jammu & Kashmir.

Meanwhile, the Mumbai police procured a transfer warrant against Faheem Ansari to investigate examine his involvement in the 26/11 attacks. Ansari, an accused in the attack on a CRPF camp in Uttar Pradesh, was arrested in February this year along with two trained Pakistani nationals. Ansari is currently in the custody of the UP police. Maria also said the police have not given a clean chit to Vinod Masani, the owner of Kuber.
