{EOP}Raymond Davis Case: JuD locations found marked on Davis’ GPS device


PKKH Breaking News Exclusive | Dan Qayyum
LAHORE – Pakistani authorities are investigating whether Jama’at-ud-Dawa chief Hafiz Mohammad Saeed was an intended assassination target for the US contractor Raymond Davis, arrested in Lahore recently after shooting dead two Pakistani citizens in broad daylight.
















Davis, presently in custody of Pakistani authorities, is reported to be part of a larger network of a US ‘Special Activities Division’ that works as part of the US Central Intelligence Agency’s National Clandestine Service. This unit operates without apparent national identification and carries out highly sensitive tasks including surveillance of important targets, assembling and operating assassination squads as well as taking part in assassinations of high value targets. Recent releases of classified documents by Wikileaks and Bob Woodward’s book ‘Obama’s Wars’ also strongly indicate the presence of highly trained US operatives on specific assassination assignments in Pakistan.
‘We’re still investigating but it increasingly appears that he (Davis) was not alone but part of a ‘death squad’ which had been assigned specific tasks. Its a slow process but he’s definitely talking’, said an official on condition of anonymity.
The shooting incident took place close to Chowbarji chowk and the famous Anarkali Bazar – located at 31°32′55N 74°18′54E. Chowbarji is the intersection where Qadsia Masjid, which often serves as JuD’s regional office, is located.
Items confiscated at the time of Raymond Davis’ arrest include a highly sophisticated model of Garmin GPS navigation tool – same as the ones being used in Afghanistan by US forces to mark and communicate locations and routes. Among the pre-marked targets saved on this GPS device were the Qadsia Masjid in Lahore, JuD’s headquarters in Muridke, Sialkot Cantonment, as well as a number of other civilian and military locations in Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
A Pakistani TV channel yesterday broadcasted photographs that were taken from Davis’ camera, which included photos of sensitive areas and defence installations. Photos of the strategic “Qila Bilahisar”, the headquarters of the paramilitary Frontier Corps in Peshawar, and Pakistan Army bunkers on the eastern border with India were found in the camera.
Also confiscated at the time of arrest was Davis’ satellite phone on which he is said to have been in direct communication from contacts outside Pakistan. These phones are usually safe for classified communication as they cannot be intercepted locally.
Hafiz Mohammad Saeed is the founder of Jama’at-ud-Dawa – a Pakistani charity blamed by India for carrying out the November 2008 Mumbai attacks. Saeed has denied having anything to do with the attacks. On October 12  2009, the Lahore High Court quashed all cases on the grounds of lack of evidence against Hafiz Muhammad Saeed and set him free.

One thing that NO ONE mentioned about this image. This Petrol station of PSO is opposite to the main enterance of the Masjid, hardly 20 ft.
