Sources in the FIA described Ahmed, a resident of Battagram in the unruly North West Frontier Province, as an "important suspect allegedly linked with" the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT), the 'Daily Times' newspaper reported on Thursday.
Ahmed was arrested following the interrogation of five LeT operatives operations commander Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi, Abu Al-Qama, Zarar Shah, Shahid Jamil Riaz and Hamad Amin Sadiq arrested earlier by the FIA. These five men are being tried by an anti-terror court in connection with the Mumbai attacks.
"The suspects revealed the name of another suspect, Jamil Ahmed, of Battagram during interrogation. Ahmed also allegedly facilitated the acts of terrorism in Mumbai on November 26," a source was quoted as saying by the newspaper.
