MUMBAI, India: The lone surviving terrorist and Pakistani gunman accused for 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks Mohammad Ajmal Kasab Tuesday said he was not a “Jihadi”. He also said that he had not undergone training at the Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) camp in Pakistan.
On the recording of the final statement of Kasab in the court on the prosecution evidence, he said that he was a cook with a catering company near Jhelum in Pakistan named “Saarayee-Alamghir”.
He denied of any involvement with the LeT and also with the Jamat-ul-Dawa (JUD). He also declined meeting Hafiz Sayed, Abu Kahfa, Zaki-ur-Lakhvi and Abu Hamza, the four wanted accused and alleged LeT operatives.
Ajmal Kasab said, “I heard the names of Lash-e-Taliban and JUD from the police in Mumbai. Crime Branch officials had shown the photograph of Lakhvi.”
