August 24, 2015 17:44

Pakistani terrorist Mohammed Naved Yakub, who is believed to be a part of the Lashkar-e-Taiba, will make a confessional statement before a magistrate in Jammu on Wednesday regarding the role of the terror outfit in carrying out strikes like the one at Udhampur in Jammu and Kashmir, where two BSF jawans were killed.

Naved, in his early 20s, was produced before a Special NIA court in Jammu today amid tight security and later taken to Chief Judicial Magistrate where the investigating agency informed that the accused was willing to give a confessional statement.

Naved along with his accomplice Mohammed Noman had carried out a terror strike on a BSF convoy on August 5. Noman was killed in retaliatory fire while Naved was nabbed by villagers who he had taken hostage.
