Re: Sri Lanka Attack Mastermind Used Chatrooms To Sway Suicide Bombers

Some officials of central security ncies said that about a dozen Sri Lankan nationals h come to Kashmir Valley this year and ir credentials have been re-checked after April 21 bombings in three churches and three luxury hotels killed 253 people and injured over 500 ors.

However, re could be a possibility of bombers visiting state using pseudonym, one of officials said, ding if Sri Lanka hands over some evidence, it can be verified from ground.

Sri Lanka Army's chief has said that some of suicide bombers, who carried out country''s worst terror attack, visited Kashmir and Kerala for "some sorts of training" or to "make some more links" with or foreign outfits.

It is first time that a top Sri Lankan security official has confirmed terrorists' visit to India which h shared intelligence inputs with Colombo ahe of attack. Nine suicide bombers, including a woman, carried out series of blasts.
