Sharp shooters being trained to target Narendra Modi: IB

There are three sharp shooters of Pakistani origin working for the Lashkar and IM which are under the scanner at the moment.

Intercepts suggest that they may try and enter into India as the election heat intensifies and Narendra Modi would address more and more rallies.

Hyder Ali is also said to be using the services of some former SIMI cadres for the job.

Abu Faisal a SIMI operative who had recently escaped from the Khandwa Jail in Madhya Pradesh on October 1 was allegedly in touch with several operatives before he was captured again on December 24th.

He is said to have contacted members of the Hizbul Mujahideen and also the Tehrik-e-Taliban to assist the IM in this job.
