NEW DEHLI: Indian investigators suspect one of the five phone numbers dialed by the Pathankot attackers may belong to the chief functionary of a charity being run by Jaish-e-Mohammad, the Hindustan Times reported on Monday.
The official said they would seek voice samples of the charity official and other key associates of Jaish-e-Mohammad chief to see whether they match the voices of the handlers of those who attacked the Pathankot air base.
Investigators also suspect the attackers or their associates conducted a recce of the air base before launching the early-morning attack on January 2 that stretched into a three-day gunfight and left seven security personnel dead.
