Ayodhya attack: Militants call to J&K being traced
Friday, July 8 2005 16:22 Hrs (IST) - World Time -

New Delhi: Security agencies were trying to trace a call reportedly made to Jammu and Kashmir by militants, who had carried out a suicide attack on the makeshift temple in Ayodhya on Tuesday (July 5, 2005) even as some crack teams had been formed to unravel the conspiracy behind it.

Spotlight: The Ayodhya crisis

Informed sources said the militants had taken over the mobile phone of Rehan, one of the two arrested drivers, and put their own SIM card in it to make calls to their possible contacts.

Although the SIM card had been destroyed by the militants before carrying out the attack, the agencies were able to crack down the dialled numbers through the International Mobile Equipment Number (IMEI) code of Rehan's handset.

The IMEI code is a unique number, which gets registered in the network that the caller is using.

Without giving the call details, the sources said one of the calls was made to Jammu and Kashmir, which was being probed by the security agencies.

Meanwhile, central security agencies have formed some crack teams and dispatched them to various parts of the country, including some metropolitan cities, following some leads in the case.

About the possibility of their route to Ayodhya, the sources said it was a bit premature to talk about it with authority as they could have entered through Nepal or from Bangladesh.
