The Jaish-e-Mohammed leader who gave directions over phone to the terrorists during the attack on Pathankot airbase has reportedly fled from Pakistan to Afghanistan, an official said.
"The alleged JeM handler who communicated by telephone more than two dozen times with the terrorists in Pathankot, before they carried out the attack on the airbase on January 2, has managed to cross into Afghan border," a member of the joint investigation team (JIT) probing the attack told PTI on Thursday.
He said the JeM handler, who is in his late 20s, was in the tribal area of Pakistan when he communicated about 18 times with the terrorists.
