The two recees are the left hand and the piglets where the right hand. usually the left and right do not know about one another. These two jerks are a team of two and one among others.

Errr...we are not even sure it was a team of two. It would most certainly be more (with local contacts not included)

The Taj Residency is on the same coast as Cochin shipyards ltd where the Viraat was undergoing a refit. Also the ADS is building there. In addition there is the navy base and nice oil terminal with prominent storage tanks there.

Cochin's naval base itself is enmeshed with the township, and naval bases the world over have to deal with such acts of attempted sabotage by the enemy. In some ways this is war by pakistan against india.

The taj residency must have been the next target too, in addition they must have planned an attack on the naval base and INS viraat and the oil terminal.

Munnar is close to Cochin and might have been the likely launch off point or escape route for the attack. A safehouse there in a small sleepy town would not have raised suspicions.

The Omani national Abdul Aziz Al Hooti was in Mumbai the week before 26/11 as per Praveen Swami. Hopefully they will probe if the 2 met. He financed other LeT ops in India.

The next thing they need to find out if either of these guys visited Bangalore.

It is possible that with the successful performa of the mumbai 26/11 attacks the same was planned to be duplicated in Cochin.

So this must also mean that a new plan, perhaps by another group for Bangalore is / was afoot. There must be more pakistanis with western sounding names on the prowl for sure.

De dana-dan
Indian Express tickers says "India hands over a new dossier on Mumbai terror attack to Pakistan". This must be incorporating Headley-Rana episode. As predicted by the BR veterans, it will be dossier-pe-dossier.
If the GOTUS wanted to hide the links with LeT operative A and B (and thereby the agency whose one-third budget comes from the US) they wouldn't have handled the case this way (making it open etc). I hope this is a way of theirs to exert some pressure on the boys (remember these people were on the radar for about one year and were arrested only when there was a fear of their disappearance).

The consul might be deliberately allowed to continue by Amrikis to keep a track of who else he meets up with.

All in all, with more details pouring in, the colossal intel failure of our agencies is getting more prominent. Cant imagine how many such unraveled networks are already enmeshed here and ready to strike.

mid level operatives when discovered are often just placed under surveillance

headley and rana are possibly just a general recon team for multiple missions. they may not even be aware of the missions - in order to maintain security. alqaida are noted for their independant small cell structure with no cross sharing of knowledge in case of capture. these two boys probably just went around collecting data of all potential targets, then some handler synthesized it and assigned it to the actual team. given the nature of the 26/11 op, this needed more planning, but in a normal bakpak operation, only the bakpak needs to know where to go by when. all else is in the hands of allah...

quite a few docs on alqaida on tv show mysterious suave westernised intellectual/business types passing in and out of airports of target cities before the bearded nutcase gets involved

Emraan Hashmi knew Headley - Bollywood Link

Investigators probing David Coleman Headley, the Pakistan-born US national arrested by the FBI for allegedly plotting terror attacks in India and Denmark, have now cause to believe a Bollywood link may exist.

Sources tell CNN-IBN that Bollywood actor Emraan Hashmi could have been in touch with Headley and that investigators are looking to probe that link.

Sources say investigators have found phone records that link Emraan Hashmi to Headley. They have added that Mahesh Bhatt's son, Rahul Bhatt introduced Emraan Hashmi to Headley.

Sources also say it was Rahul Bhatt who told investigators that Emraan Hashmi and Headley have been in touch.

Emraan Hashmi is film-maker Mahesh Bhatt's nephew.

Meanwhile, Home Ministry sources now confirming that Rahul Bhatt is not a suspect and that he is being treated as a witness in the case.

Earlier, Home Secretary GK Pillai had said that everyone involved in the case will be treated as a suspect.

Sources have also told CNN-IBN that Rahul Bhatt took Headley to meet two Bollywood actresses, though the sources have refused to name these actresses.

The National Investigation Agency (NIA), which is probing the case, has asked Rahul Bhatt - who came in contact with terror suspect David Headley during the latter's stay in Mumbai - not to leave the city.

"The NIA team has been in Mumbai since Saturday and is gathering details pertaining to the activities of Headley and Tahawwur Hussain Rana. The NIA has recorded the statements of those who were in touch with Headley during his stay in the city," a senior police official told news agency PTI.

"Rahul Bhatt and the other three are fully cooperating with the police and NIA. All of them have been asked not to leave Mumbai for some time," the source told PTI on condition of anonymity.

The NIA has registered a case against Laskhar-e-Toiba operatives Headley and Rana after their arrest by the US investigating agency FBI for allegedly plotting terror attacks in India.

Looks like they had free access to the Bollywood new crowd. Its high time PC gives 24 hrs to B'wood to come up with everything they know about this and other cases or be treated as suspects.

Looks like from petty money laundering its moving up to anti-national activities like meeting with terrorists and their handlers.

If Headley was in Mumbai during 26/11 then could he have been in touch with the terrorists?

Lalmohan this is not AlQ, but ISI covert operation.

Plausible but not probable. The entire Mahesh Bhatt family has major takleef nad has shown an inclination for making movies that portray the terrorist point of view. So it could be a gathering/attraction of vultures.

Controversies

In July 2009, Hashmi claimed that a housing society in Mumbai's upmarket Pali Hill locality refused to grant him permission to buy an apartment because he was a Muslim. The housing society rejected the allegations and in turn accused Hashmi and his family of intimidatory behavior.[2] Hashmi's allegations were condemned by other Muslim actors in Bollywood, especially Salman Khan and Shahrukh Khan[3] while the Indian-Islamic Cultural Center accused Hashmi of spurring communal tensions in India.[4]

On August 10, 2009, Hashmi backtracked from his accusation and said that the housing society has not discriminated against him and termed the incident as a "miscommunication".

Doing his bit to stir up controversies and helps the propaganda machine of left and terrorists.

ramanaji... I should not be too harsh. I am not disappointed with the fact that our police/RAW/IB did not crack this but I would like them to keep an open mind about these investigations instead of outright rejection of all theories.

in gunaratna's book an alq he talks about their network and cell security being highly sophisticated and structured like a proper intel agency... isnt it likely that all the sophistication comes about from ISI injections of capability, which in turn was imparted by MI6 and CIA in the first place? isnt it likely that alq and the isi in loose collaboration are operating large numbers of recon teams all over the world, facilitated by the friendly pakistani consular offices to provide cover?

missions are then assigned in different territories by different commands... just like the US global command structure?

Guys,
There is a report that indicates that Gilani and Rana left India for Pakistan a week before 26/11. http://www.ndtv.com/news/india/headley_ ... g_2611.php

If that is true, then they may be part of the team directing the actual attacks. I hope the investigating team is carefully scouring the cell phone recordings and do a voice match against Gilani and Rana. However, if their role is restricted to the initial phase to guide the terrorists to reaches the target site, then they may not find any.

We should also question the motive of US to release these names/info now, but not allowing our team to actually talk to them. Afterall US has gone to great lengths in the past to deny, destroy and simply refuse to even acknowledge Paki complicity in anything affecting India. Are these the signs of change? Has US abandoned their old ways and is truly demonstrating their resolve to to root out terrorism irrespective of the target(India in this case)?
Or is US sending a signal/threat to Pak leadership (of course it is ISI/Army) that it won't hesitate to sacrifice major ISI assets in the west, if it doesn't play ball in the Af-Pak scenario?

In any case, it will be a significant marker in Indo-US relationship if they actually handover Gilani and Rana to India. Let us how it plays or "parkalam".

Letter to Editor in Hindu!

The government should flash the pictures of Headley and Rana and request all those who came into contact with them to provide information. Given that Headley visited India nine times between 2006 and 2009, he must have surely met several people. Of course, the government could have pre-empted all this had it kept a close watch on Headley. The frequency of his visits should have created suspicion.

Senthil Kumar,

Toronto

Ok. Here is one report that conflicts the one I had posted above.
http://news.rediff.com/report/2009/nov/ ... learer.htm

It is yet to be ascertained if Ansari had just identified the targets and drawn the maps while Headley and Rana had gone into the finer details of the targets. While Ansari left Mumbai immediately after his survey, the duo stayed on.

Also, it has been revealed that Headley and Rana were both in Mumbai at the time of the attacks and left immediately after it ended. Union Home Secretary G K Pillai has confirmed this fact.

The IB says that telephone call records of the duo and their e-mails are under scrutiny to find out if they had been in touch with the terrorists during the attacks. The investigating team feels that with the help of footage they had they could have guided the attackers during the attacks.

Once Headley and Rana left India for Pakistan after the attacks, they contacted Abu Jundal, another accused in the 26/11 attacks case. Jundal is said to have been in regular touch with the attackers.

Rangudu · Post by **Rangudu** » 18 Nov 2009 00:19

The most curious part of this whole saga is the absolute reluctance of Unkil to even hint about Rana & Headley's connections to 26/11.

Not one whiff of 26/11 in the indictment, press releases and even leaks to US media.

Normally, even when officially Unkil wants to cover up incriminating TSPA ties, sooner or later things will leak out to NY Times, LA Times etc.

This is otherwise a huge story because we have people with ties to Al Qaeda caught successfully and one of them is a US citizen. But there has been exactly 1 report each in the main US papers with no follow up stories or even coverage of legal aspects.

Only the Indian press is running with this story.

I'm betting that whatever is being covered up must be so incriminating that they are pulling out all stops to cover it up.

this is a never ending wild goose chase unless the head is knocked off.

Very true. Even if we manage to track quite a few such teams, the ISI will keep sending in more teams just like the jeehard nutcases through into J&K through the 90's. When the IA kicked jihadi nuts in j&k in all these years, their numbers have reduced and isi has concentrated more on the rest ofthe country.

Noob Question,
Given that a very high percentage of such infiltrators transit through the gulf countries, why isn't the visa issuance procedure and incoming/outgoing tracking at airports air-tight? Or is it just too numerous to become porous automatically?

Even if we have duplicate/fake passports being used can't we use image-based searches for nailing these guys? Surely we have that kind of computing power. Or even bionic tracking like digital finger-printing like the US is doing these days. And this can be done at close to real-time by a central computing system.

I just checked. Approximately 60,000 plus travelers from India to the gulf in a week. That isn't a huge number, even if it increases to 1 mil a week. It can be done. But will it be done?

Delhi Police is trying to retrace suspected Lashkar operative David Headley's terror footprints and find out if he was behind the September 2008 serial blasts that rocked the city.

Police are trying to find out if Headley had any local contacts in the Capital. Headley stayed at two hotels in Paharganj area for three days and visited cybercafes.

Police are now scanning cybercafes in Paharganj. Customer records mandatory for cafes have been called for and two cybercafes are under the scanner.

Police suspect that Headley had used one of the cafes to send mails to his associate Tahawwur Hussain Rana. A web footprint of the duo is being created and hard discs of some computers have been taken for a probe.

The police have also collected copies of C-Forms of all foreigners who stayed in the area's hotels during the time Headley came visiting.

I am sure the big hotels carry this C-Form. Does small hotels carry this too? What if these crooks stayed in small hotels.

Indian investigators have asked FBI, which arrested Headley and Rana for plotting terror attack in the US and India, for the voice sample of Headley and Rana so that it could be compared with the sample available in the capital.

Sources said filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt's son Rahul was not a terror suspect but efforts were on to ascertain if he had unwittingly helped Headley.

There is definite information that Headley and Rana had stayed in Pakistan during last year's Mumbai attack and left that country in the first week of December 2008, the source said.

Following the leads, investigators are questioning a lot of local contacts in all the places which Headley and Rana had visited during their stay in India between 2006 and 2009.

"However, there is no prominent person whom he had contacted," he said. Besides, a large number of people -- more than 100 -- had contacted Rana after he issued advertisements in newspapers offering immigration services.

"We don't know how many had availed of the facility and how many of them had gone abroad. We are verifying all such details," the source said.

During their stay in India, Headley and Rana mostly had used international credit cards for their financial dealings besides receiving money from abroad through Western Union Money Transfer.

Asked about the woman who had accompanied Headley in Mumbai and other places, the source said she was not his wife. "But Rana has a wife," he said.

On reports of an official of Pakistan Consulate in Mumbai handing over a satellite telephone to Headley, the source said there was no proof of that.

He also dismissed reports of Rahul Bhatt introducing three Bollywood actresses to Headley as mere speculation.

This is slowly becoming 1993 blasts type case with serious involvement of underworld in coordination with TSP.
Here is my off repeated theory: Congress back to power and the underworld gets power too. India is going all the way back to 1980. The arrangements were so perfect for the underworld, bollywood, congress pary and its Muslim votebank with once in a while riots and condolences.

An actress went out for dinner with Headley?

MUMBAI: After Rahul Bhatt, the names of few other film personalities have cropped up in David Headley case, including an actress who went out for dinner with him.

Sources said they came in contact with Headley through Rahul Bhatt and other common friends. Most of them met at Moksh fitness centre at Breach Candy where Headley used to work out. However crime branch officials said they have no information about any Bollywood personality being associated with Headley.

The source indicated that these film personalities will be questioned along with Rahul Bhatt by the National Investigation Agency (NIA). Headley befriended the actors and partied with few of them, sources said. It could be possible that they were not aware of his terror links.

The actress in question was paired with some of the leading Bollywood actors. However, her family members told TOI that the actress was never introduced to Headley. "Its just a coincidence that they went to the same gym. My daughter has never heard about Headley," her mother said. {who is this - as per rumor mills it is Kangna Ranaut but she did not work wilth leading actors. Emraan, Kangna Ranaut , Uditi Goswami etc are all soft p o r n stars of Bollywood. 99% of all the soft p o r n movies in the mainstream are produed and directed by the Mahesh Bhatt and his family}

The other actor known as a serial kisser {Emraan Hashmi - the guy who complained about not getting a home in Mumbai because he is muslim} had also reportedly met Headley. The actor told TOI all questions about his links with Headley be directed to NIA. Rahul landed in a controversy after American investigating agency FBI found that Headley had used his name in his communication with his Pakistani counterparts. Rahul was a codename used for Mumbai.

Zeenews was giving a lot of details omitted in English press for whatever reasons. The name of the film sets where this Headley was invited by Hashemi was mentioned but my Hindi isnt that good.
Zee was suggesting that whole 26/11 attack was scoped out and executed by these two.

I suggest looking at vernacular media to get more details.

I have no knowledge of the film world. But, one of the channels last night (Headlines Today perhaps), was interviewing an actress by name Aarti Chabra (or Chabria ?) as her name has come up in connection with this case. She said that she was a member of the Moksha gym but had never known Rahul Bhatt or the other instructor there and never knew anybody by name Headley.

Rana and his wife checked in at the hotel by 6 p.m. on November 16 and checked out by 2.45 p.m. on November 17. They took a private jetliner to Mumbai at 9 p.m. What Rana might have done during the six-hour transit is what perplexes the investigators, who are probing for leads on the same.

MID-DAY: Did Headley date Starlet?

Apart from Chhabria, at least five other Bollywood personalities will be questioned as they had also met Headley.

Union Home Secretary G K Pillai at a press conference in Delhi on Monday confirming the probe said the statements of the actors would be recorded in connection with the terror case.

NIA officials say the link between Chhabria and Headley was her friend Khalid, who is being questioned. Khalid allegedly wanted Headley's help to get an US visa in 2007.

However, he denied having met Headley. Said Khalid, "Aarti and I are friends and have been working out together in the gym. But, I have never met any Headley and neither has Aarti."

Sources also said that NIA sleuths have been analysing phone records of several actors, including Emraan Hashmi and Soha Ali Khan, who met Headley on film sets in the past few years and are probing whether the terrorist had managed to infiltrate into Bollywood and finance a few projects.

These Bollywood whores and traitors have absolutely no qualms about selling the country as it is to them same as selling their bodies. Remember the long list of Bollywood starlets that were often reported flying to Dubai/ME hobnobbing with dacoits and gangsters and 'serving' them? Cases of underworld funding Bollywood have also come up often.

This industry needs thorough investigation, cleanup and more importantly Indian public should stop watching this worthless sewage that is an insult to India more than anything else. I always cringe with shame when, in the presence of non-indians a Bollywood movie shows idiots dancing and singing in the streets of Melbourne or some such city or those ridiculous story lines or stuff often shamelessly copied from western movies. Because the sarcastic / condescending questions immediately follow and we have to line up rejoinders or counter questions.

The days of Raj Kapoor, Sahir Ludhianvi, Md. Rafi, Manoj Kumar and Guru Dutt are long gone...

Secu-liarism is just a convenient cloak for them to conceal their anti-national activities.

Rahul Bhatt introduced Headley to 15 film personalities

Mumbai: Bollywood director Mahesh Bhatt’s son Rahul has revealed during his interrogation by the NIA that he had introduced 26/11 terror suspect David Coleman Headley to 15 other film personalities.

Film actors Karan Kapoor, Kangana Ranaut, Aarti Chabria and Tara Sharma were among the Bollywood personalities who met Headley through Rahul.

Some film critics are also among the 15 reported to have met Headley.

The nefarious designs of the suspect are apparent from the fact that he wanted to befriend the Bollywood industry and was using Rahul as the medium to do so.

Film star Emraan Hashmi is likely to be questioned by the NIA for his alleged links with the suspect. However, so far there is no information on the timing of the grilling of the 15 suspects.

Rahul also told the NIA that he and Headley had met several Bollywood personalities together, while the US national also met some of them in private.

Vilas, who was training them both at a gym frequented by the duo, said that as per his understanding David was an immigration lawyer and his job was just to train him.

The NIA is likely to unveil more details regarding Headley’s Bollywood connection in the coming days.

Obviously, Rahul Bhatt's association with Mr. Headley was more than mere acquaintance, as Mr. Mahesh Bhatt would tell us to believe, going by all these snippets that are appearing out of the woodworks one after another.
