In February this year, Pakistans Federal Investigation Agency held three key Lashkar operatives, who it said were the key architects of the Mumbai strike.

But
despite holding the three key Lashkar commanders in its custody, the FIA cast no light on the Headley-Mir reconnaissance operation.
The failure, Indian investigators allege, is part of a pattern of less-than-transparent conduct.
For example, the
FIA has failed to conduct forensic tests which would establish whether Wajid is, in fact, among the men who guided the assault through calls through a voice-over-Internet phone service. Nor has it responded to requests for photographs of Wajid, which would allow Indian investigators to corroborate the Lashkar commanders identity by interviewing jailed jihadists who have met him.
FIA detectives also appear to have left gaps in the evidence linking low-level operatives with top commanders.
In a dossier submitted to India this summer, the FIA said Lashkar office-bearers transferred funds for terrorist activities and operations in Mumbai. But the dossier is silent on who they were.
