New Delhi: Just as the scale and magnitude of the Mumbai attacks was unprecedented so has been the depth and scale of the investigation. Evidence of every nature - physical, forensic, electronic, put together in what was called the Mumbai dossier, has Pakistan written all over. Here are the contents of that dossier which Pakistan has finally found credible.

Just after the Mumbai attacks, Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi, Zarar Shah and Hafiz Saeed - all top Lashker-e-Toiba terrorists - emerged as the main suspects.

But more than a month into the attack, it is now clear that it was not just the Lashker that planned and executed the attacks. It seems as if a Pakistan within Pakistan is emerging - a Pakistan which is beyond the control of its civilian government, a Pakistan which actively sponsors terrorism.

The Mumbai dossier compiled by India and sent to Pakistan includes:

  • The confession of Ajmal Kasab - the only terrorist of the 26/11 attack captured alive
  • DNA prints of all 10 terrorists
  • Log book recovered from Kuber the vessel which was hijacked by the terrorists to reach Mumbai
  • The log book details were written in Urdu and shows terrorists performing guard duties
  • Supplies left on Kuber had made in Pak labels
  • Photographs of detergent powder of Pakistani make, diesel containers and a matchbox with 'made-in Pakistan' labels
  • Photographs of 10 kg wheat flour packet from Qamar Food Products, Plot no 3/3, Shah Faisal Town, Karachi
  • Medicam dental cream, Touch Me Shaving cream, a Mountain Dew soft drink bottle with all Pakistan labels
  • The 9 mm pistols recovered from almost all terrorists had the marking 'Diamond Nedi Frontier Arms Company, Pehshawar'
  • Grenades recovered had Arges marking similar grenades were also when Parliament was attacked in December 2001
  • Arges, an Austrian company, has stopped manufacturing grenades but has given franchise to Pakistan Ordinance Factory
  • Nokia 1200 mobile phone recovered. Code 0546861, IMEI number: 353526/02/584089/0
  • GPS records indicating the route taken by the terrorists from Karachi to Mumbai on 26/11
  • The team set off at about 8 am on November 22 in a small boat, it has emerged from GPS data and Kasab's interrogation
  • About 40 minutes later, they were moved to a larger boat called Al-Hussaini that Kasab has said belonged to Lakhvi, the LeT commander
  • Satellite phone records of conversation between 26/11 terrorists and their handlers in Pakistan
  • Taped conversations between ISI majors and Pak Army officers
  • Transcripts of phone conversations between Mumbai terrorists and Muzammil, LeT no.4
  • Transcripts of internet phone calls between the 26/11 terrorists in Taj, Oberoi and Nariman House in Mumbai with their LeT controllers in Pakistan
  • The LeT controllers of the operation have been identified as Zaki-ur-Rahman Lakhvi, Abu Hamza and Abu Qafa
  • During these calls, Zaki-ur-Rahman Lakhvi, the LeT commander, gave instructions to the terrorists at the Taj Mahal Hotel and Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus
  • The Terrorists were also instructed to kill all the Israelis in Nariman house
  • The calls were made using a Cellphonics service over a Vox Phone. Cellphonics is a service provider of Voice over Internet protocol, a technology that enables a person to make and receive phone calls through the Internet
  • Two international numbers were purchased from Vox Phone - one with a New Jersey registration and the other with a Vienna registration
  • $290 was paid through Karachi office of Western Union to Orlando office of Vox phone
  • Zarar Shah, Communication Chief of LeT, has revealed that all the 10 terrorists were trained in Pakistan-occupied-Kashmir and Peshawar
  • Zarar Shah was the one who sent the e-mail naming Deccan Mujahideen responsible for the attack
  • Shah was being handled by a Pakistani ISI Major who is the head of forward planning desk
  • The 26/11 terrorists were trained by a former Pakistani special forces officer

India is now planning to add more to the dossier to prove how the ISI used India's most wanted man, Dawood Ibrahim, to provide local logistical support to the attackers of Mumbai.
