A witness in 26/11 terror attack trial identified a map (of target spots), which was recovered from the pocket of slain terrorist Abu Ismail by police in his presence immediately after the deadly strikes.
According to prosecution, the map was prepared by accused Faheem Ansari who is facing the trial along with Sabauddin Ahmed and captured Pakistani gunman Mohammed Ajmal Amir Qasab.
Sabauddin is charged with handing over maps to Lashkar-e-Toiba conspirators.
The witness, Sanjay Sonawane, told special public prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam that the map and a blank notebook wrapped in a packet was recovered by police and shown to him. The packet was then sealed in his presence.
The witness said the map showed 12 places in Mumbai and these spots were circled with red markings.
To a question by defence lawyer Abbas Kazmi, the witness said the map did not contain green markings. He was then confronted with the map which had red as well as green markings.
Prosecutor Nikam, however, contended that the green markings were made by handwriting expert later and the witness had not seen them.
The map was drawn by hand and that is why a handwriting expert was called to identify whether accused Faheem had drawn it.
