India hopes to get voice samples of Mumbai attack handlers
Indian Home Minister Shinde contacts Rehman Malik to request voice samples of Pakistan-based attackers.
NEW DELHI:
The Indian government stated on Saturday that it was expecting to acquire voice samples of the handlers of Mumbai attackers and a speedy trial for the seven suspects in custody, including Lashkar-e-Taiba commander Zaikur Rehman Lakhvi, to be conducted in India, Press Trust of India reported.
Home Minister of India Sushilkumar Shinde said that he has contacted Interior Minister Rehman Malik to request the voice samples of those people who directed the 10 terrorists during the terrorist attack.
The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) last week asked an anti-terrorism court to conduct day-to-day hearings of the Mumbai 2008 attacks case to expedite the trial of the seven arrested suspects.
The alleged mastermind of the attacks Zakiur Rehman and Hammad Amin Sadiq, Shahid Jamil Riaz, Younas Anjum, Jamil Ahmed, Mazhar Iqbal and Abdul Majid were arrested in January 2009.
Up to 166 people were killed while another 170 were injured in the attacks, which took place in November 2008.
