Mumbai attacks conspirator David Coleman Headley’s handler Muzammil Butt, alias Abu Hurera, had made an elaborate plot to assassinate former J&K Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, it has emerged. The plan was to be carried out with the help of local university lecturer, soon after the 26/11 carnage.
The senior Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) commander was one of the key 2008 Mumbai attacks plotters. However, security agencies got a whiff of the operation just two days before he could execute it.A top secret report accessed by India Today TV reveals the security agencies had raced against time to decode a taped conversation between senior LeT commanders – one based in Pakistan and the other in the Kashmir Valley.
When security agencies finally managed to crack it, they were shocked to learn that the Jammu and Kashmir chief minister was their target.
The report reveals that the attack was planned on April 17, 2010, and security agencies managed to decode it only on the night of April 15-16.
Security agencies struggled to decipher the conversation that was done in an elaborate coded language.
The report reveals that Abu Hurera had hatched the conspiracy with Abdullah Uni, LeT’s senior commander based in the Valley.
A GOI dossier claims Muzammil Butt alias Abu Hurera is LeT’s overall operational commander.
Uni had prepared a two-member suicide attack team and roped in two local sympathisers, one pf them a government college lecturer.
The lecturer (not identified) was to collect local intelligence as the plan involved targeting Abdullah when he came to offer Friday namaz at a mosque located near the university campus in the Kashmir Valley.
