Delhi court issues non-bailable warrant against Lashkar militants, ISI officers The noose is finally tightening around the perpetrators of several serial blasts in the country but it's only the Indian judicial agencies that are registering hectic activity. Based on the evidence given by Lashkar operative David Coleman Headley to the National Investigating Agency (NIA), a Delhi court on Wednesday issued non-bailable warrants against five Pakistani nationals. Two of the perpetrators named in the warrants - Major Iqbal and Major Sameer Ali - are serving officials of Pakistan Army. The other three Pakistani nationals - Sajid Majid, Syed Abdur Rehman and Illyas Kashmiri - are known Lashkar-e-Toiba terrorists. According to the facts presented by the NIA, the accused had planned the terror strikes in Delhi, Mumbai and other cities from 2005 to 2009. District and sessions judge SP Garg while issuing the warrant said Headley had categorically mentioned the involvement of these people in terror activities, including that of 26/11 Mumbai attack. The court has asked the NIA to return with a status report on the warrants by October 7. The warrant would help the NIA in securing the Interpol's Red Corner Notice against the accused. But the court rejected the NIA's plea to issue the non-bailable warrants against Jamaat-ud-Dawa (JuD) chief Hafiz Saeed and LeT top commander Zaki-ur-Rehman Lakhvi, saying that a Mumbai court has already issued warrants against the duo. The court said that the NIA could secure a special notice from the Mumbai court against Saeed and Lakhvi who have been branded as international terrorists in a UN resolution of 1999. Adviser speak The warrants came a day after links between terror networks and Pakistan's official establishment as well as intelligence agencies were underlined by comments made by India's National Security Adviser Shivshankar Menon. His comments came against the backdrop of revelations that Pakistani-American and LeT operative David Headley made about Pakistani Navy training 26/11 attackers and ISI controlling the 60-hour-long Mumbai assault from beginning to end.
