On December 31, 2008, unnamed Pakistani security officials told The Wall Street Journal that Zarrar Shah, a leader of the militant Islamic group Lashkar-e-Taiba had confessed that his organization was behind the terrorist attacks on Mumbai. Shah reportedly confirmed much of what the lone gunman captured during the attacks had said; that the ten assailants had been trained in Kashmir and Karachi and then traveled by boat to Mumbai. Shah also said that he was among those who masterminded the attack and implicated several other Lashkar members in his statements.Wall Street Journal: Pakistan's Probe Finds Local Links To Attacks On Mumbai (December 31, 2008)
Arrest
Shah's arrest was announced on December 10, just days after another alleged mastermind of the attacks, Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi, was taken into custody. Both men are suspected senior members of the militant Islamic group Lashkar-e-Taiba, or L-e-T. L-e-T has been identified by authorities in India and the U.S. as the group behind the November 2008 terror attacks that killed more than 170 people.USA Today: Pakistan confirms Mumbai arrests CBS News: Saber Rattling from New Delhi?
