JAMMU: The Jammu and Kashmir police had alerted the central government about holes in Indian coastal security following disclosures by two Pakistani
terrorists of Lashkar-e-Taiba (LET) arrested from the mountainous Rajouri district in March last year.

A police official said on condition of anonymity that the two Pakistani militants, arrested by Rajouri and Poonch police in a joint operation in Manjakote, had alleged that sea routes were used for infiltration for the first time "by paying bribes to coast guards".

Abdul Majeed of Nawabshah and Mohammad Jameel of Mansera had reportedly revealed to the interrogators that they had infiltrated into Indian territory in groups of eight from Karachi through the sea route.

They claimed they had paid "huge amounts to coastguards to reach Mumbai after a private boat they were sailing in was intercepted by the guards in Indian waters".

The official said: "The militants told us that they were sent from Karachi as a group of eight militants in a private boat by LeT's 'launching commander'. It took them three days to reach Mumbai. Their ship was intercepted by the Indian Coast Guard when it went out of order for sometime. However, the terrorist managed to cross the security net by paying a huge bribe."
