Mumbai: Pakistani-American terrorist and 2008 Mumbai terror attacks convict David Coleman Headley's testimony has been adjourned till Thursday due to a technical glitch in the video conferencing on Wednesday.
The deposition will begin at 7 AM on Thursday and will continue till 1:30 PM.
"The technical glitch was from the US side and even after several attempts, experts failed to fix it. The deposition will begin tomorrow," said Special Public Prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam.
Headley was deposing before a Mumbai court for the third consecutive day today.
Deposing from a undisclosed location Headley told the special judge GA Sanap that ISI was helping different terror outfits in Pakistan by providing financial, military and moral support.
He also revealed that plans to target Mumbai had started over a year before November 26, 2008 and that LeT initially wanted to attack a conference of Indian defence scientists at Taj Mahal Hotel for which even a dummy of the hotel was prepared.
But the plan to target scientists was dropped because of logistical reasons, like difficulty in smuggling in weapons and personnel and lack of details about the schedule of the meet, he said.
Headley said that Sajid Mir, his contact person in LeT, specifically asked him to make video of Siddhivinayak Temple.
Headley also said that he also used to work for ISI and has met many Pakistan army officials.
