FIA gets two days remand of Mumbai attack suspectsRawalpindi, Mar. 18: The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has obtained the physical remand of three Mumbai attack suspects for two more days from the Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) here.

According to The Nation, the FIA had sought the remand of the accused following India’s response to Pakistan’s 30 questions over the 26/11 incident.

The FIA investigators told the court that the accused were to be interrogated in the light of answers provided by India.

Judge Sakhi M Kahot, while accepting the FIA’s plea, extended the custody of Zaki-ur-Rehman Lakhvi, Mazhar Iqbal alias Abu al-Qama, and Abdul Wajid alias Zarar Shah to two more days.

The court also extended the judicial remand of another accused Hammad Amin Saddiq for 14 days.

All the accused were arrested in January this year in connection with the November 2008 Mumbai terror attacks in which 170 persons including foreigners were killed and over 200 were wounded. (ANI)
