KATHMANDU, Feb 26: Mumbai Police has claimed that the terrorists who attacked Mumbai in November 26, 2008, fetched map of the targets from an Indian national in Kathmandu sometimes in January 2008, Times of India reported Thursday.



"The accused Fahim Ansari after reconnaissance and preparation of detailed maps of the target locations, handed over the same to arrested co-accused Sabahuddin Ahmed at Kathmandu in Nepal sometime in January 2008," said the newspaper quoting the chargesheet, which was filed on Wednesday.



"The LeT co-conspirators then made arrangements for fetching the maps from Sabahuddin Ahmed at Kathmandu," the chargesheet said.



The voluminous 11,280-page chargesheet mentions 47 names including nine dead terrorists and two Indian nationals Fahim Ansari and Sabahuddin Ahmed, according to the paper.



Ansari and Ahmed were arrested in January last year by Uttar Pradesh police in connection with the CRPF camp attacks there. They are in judicial custody until March 9 and were taken by Mumbai Police in December last year for their alleged involvement in Mumbai attacks.
