PANJIM: Even as Pakistani-American Terrorist David Headley continued his deposition before special judge in Mumbai, Goa police are closely keeping a tab on his statements as he has mentioned about terrorists’ plan to attack an institution in the coastal State.
Headley in his statement has claimed that Chabad House at Anjuna was a secondary target of terror outfits.
A senior Goa Police officer said that Goa police will get the detailed copy of the statement once the deposition is over. “The statement is being recorded by magistrate. The details of it would be conveyed to us by the concerned police,” he said.
Chabad House at Anjuna is a Jewish community centre which was on the target list of extremists along with similar establishments in Pushkar and Pune. Headley has confessed before the special judge of visiting Chabad House at Anjuna, a prominent tourist destination in Goa.
“There were already intelligence inputs about Headley doing recee of Chabad House at Anjuna. Now it has come on the record,” a senior police official said.
He said police will go through each and every word of Headley to study any future terror threat to the State. “We can learn the mind of terrorists through his statements,” he said.
