Pakistan’s Joint Investigation Team (JIT), which was here to probe the Pathankot terror strike, wrapped up its investigations on Thursday. The team will leave for Pakistan on Friday.
On Thursday, the JIT recorded statements of 13 witnesses, including former Gurdaspur SP Salwinder Singh, whose vehicle was snatched by the Jaish-e-Mohammad terrorists to reach the Pathankot Airbase.
The JIT recorded the statements of witnesses through the National Investigation Agency (NIA).
They were not allowed to directly question the witnesses, as per protocol, said an NIA official.
The JIT had asked NIA to hand over swabs of four terrorists identified as Nasir Hussain (Punjab province), Abu Bakar, (Gujranwala), Umar Farooq and Abdul Qayum (both from Sindh).
However, the Indian anti-terror probe agency handed over to the visitors the DNA report of the terrorists and asked them to match those with their family members.
