Islamabad: An FBI team visited the village of Ajmal Amir Iman Kasab, the lone terrorist captured during the Mumbai attacks, in Pakistan's Punjab province to probe his links to the deadly terror strikes and was still continuing it's investigation.
The team visited Faridkot, Kasab's village in Okara district of Punjab province, yesterday and conducted inquiries, diplomatic and other sources told PTI.
The sources rubbished reports in the media, particularly in some Pakistani TV channels, that the FBI team had found nothing that proved Kasab was a Pakistani national.
The FBI team was still in the process of conducting it's inquiries and would take more time to come to conclusions, the sources said. They declined to give further details.
The team of investigators arrived in Islamabad on Tuesday to carry forward the FBI's probe into the Mumbai attacks, in which six American nationals were also killed. Some reports have suggested the team is led by FBI's director for South Asia William Robert, though this could not be independently confirmed.
FBI spokesman Richard Kolko, when contacted by the Dawn newspaper to comment on the reports of the team's visit to Faridkot, said: "The FBI continues to assist Indian authorities with their investigation. We will work with the Indian authorities and our partners to follow leads wherever they may take us."
