Zaibullah alias Hamza, a 20-year-old Multan-based Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) militant, has made some worrisome revelations after his capture on April 7th. Zaibullah was apprehended from a house in Kupwara, in Jammu and Kashmir, India.

Apparently, the terror outfit has developed a mobile phone that is specially made for the communication of LeT members.

The handset uses a particular chip that enables the mobile device to connect to the nearest mobile tower, irrespective of telecom service provider. The militant also claims that the calls cannot be traced by intelligence agencies and if any call is even intercepted, it will disconnect automatically.

The LeT has trained about 450 men out of different places in Pakistan for anti-India operations last year, says a report by Economic Times. Zaibullah, son of an income tax officer in Pakistan was one of them. He crossed over to India in March with five others. All his associates who crossed the border with him were killed in an encounter with the Indian Army on March 20.

Zaibullah even took a bullet to his hand in the encounter but escaped the scene. He was caught 15 days later. He says that the LeT chiefs also visit training camps where boys like him between the age of 15-25 are trained. All the trainees are motivated towards ‘jihad’ and are even been motivated in the name of ‘Burhan Wani’.

Zabiullah also claims that his father, an income tax officer in Pakistan, encouraged his activities and donated Rs 1,000 per month to a ‘jihad fund’.
