The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the premier US investigative agency, has launched a massive search for MV Al Husseini, the sea vessel, which was allegedly used by ten 26/11 terrorists to sail towards Mumbai.
"The FBI has launched a hunt for M V Husseini, which is a little bigger than a fishing trawler, with help of their overseas contacts to crack the case," Bharti told MiD DAY.
The FBI probe is expected to throw fresh light on the vessel, which went missing soon after the 10 terrorists landed in Mumbai on 26/11.
Suspicious sighting
Meanwhile, residents of a fishing village off Tarapore Coast, some 100 km from Mumbai, reported the sighting of a speedboat with some suspicious-looking strangers on board heading towards Mumbai.
Superintendent of Police (Thane Rural) Shashikant Mahavarkar said a hunt was on to locate the vessel and the Coast Guard and Navy have been informed about the sighting as well.
Coast Guard Inspector General Rajendra Singh also confirmed that the local police had informed them of the mysterious boat. Tarapore has a nuclear research centre and also has a heavy water project. Both are, therefore, sensitive areas.u00a0u00a0u00a0
