Headley conducted recce of Nariman House before 26/11

Sumir Kaul
Mumbai, Nov 26 (PTI) US terror suspect David Headley had
conducted a detailed reccee of Nariman House before the Mumbai
carnage and even entered the targeted Jewish Centre posing as
a Jew, official sources said Thursday.

The new detail of Headley's movement in this western
metropolis prior to the 26/11 attack came on the back of
evidence that the US national had also visited and stayed at
Taj and Oberoi here--the two luxury hotels which was attacked.
Official sources said statements of some of the
witnesses who had either seen or accompanied the 48-year-old
Headley to Nariman House, also known as Chabbad House, have
been recorded. A Rabbi and his wife were among the six killed
there.
The attack by Lashker-e-Taiba(LeT) terrorists last year
in the five-storeyed house, which can be approached only
through narrow lanes and by-lanes of Colaba, had left the
security agencies without any doubt that a proper recee had
been conducted before the srike.
Now after Headley's arrest, things appear to be falling
in place with the central security agencies tracing people who
had taken him to Nariman House on their motorcycles, the
sources said. Headley is currently in FBI custody in the US
for allegedly plotting attacks in India.
One of the witnesses, whose statement has been recorded,
told the investigators that Headley went inside the house and
posed as a Jew and interacted with the inmates for a long
time, the sources said. (MORE) PTI SKL
