A Pakistani banker today testified against one of the accused in the 2008 Mumbai attack case, saying he had made transaction worth Rs 15 lakh which is believed to have been used for carrying out the terror act.
The employee of Muslim Commercial Bank, Gujranwala district branch, some 80 kilometres from here, told an an Anti-Terrorism Court in Islamabad that accused Shahid Jameel had made a transaction of Rs 15 lakh.
Sources said the prosecution established that Jameel used the money for terror activity. The defence lawyer, however, dismissed the claim.
The court summoned more witnesses for the next hearing on February 26.
LeT operations commander Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi, Abdul Wajid, Mazhar Iqbal, Sadiq, Shahid Jameel Riaz, Jamil Ahmed and Younas Anjum were arrested in 2009 for their alleged role in the attacks that left 166 people dead and over 300 injured.
The trial is taking place at a slow pace but the prosecution team is upbeat about the case.
Pakistan has acknowledged that the conspiracy behind the attacks was hatched on its soil
. India last year handed over five key documents running into nearly 600 pages for use in the trial here so that prosecutors can proceed against the seven accused.
The documents include a certified copy of the Indian Supreme Court's judgement on the case, depositions by two doctors who conducted the autopsy of nine slain terrorists and the chief investigating officer who probed the case
