“He along with his other associate commanders of LeT based in Pakistan, have been recruiting individuals (Over Ground Workers) to conduct reconnaissance of pre-determined targets, coordinating and transporting arms/ammunition/explosives to support the (militants) of LeT and TRF in order to launch attacks on the security forces and execute targeted killings,” it said.
