ISLAMABAD – German author Elias Davidsson in his book “The Betrayalof India: Revisiting the 26/11 Evidence” reveals that many of the India’sclaims about (Mumbai attacks) – the terrorist attacks in its capital onNovember 26, 2008 lacks truth.
Davidsson is of the view that Indian state’s investigation of the attackswas an eye wash to blame Pakistan. The writer’s views somehow corroboratesPakistan’s stance on the terror incident.
He further claimed in the book the published last year that the attackersused American telephone numbers when they unleashed the armed assault.

The author writes, “It is highly plausible, that major institutional actorsin India , the United States and possibly Israel, were complicit inconceiving, planning, directing and executing the attacks of 26/11;evidence of a deceptive investigation is even stronger”.
Elias Davidsson has rebutted the Indian narrative and goes on to suggestthat Indian version was totally concocted, based on deceit and outrightlies, and that it was promulgated through a well thought out disinformationcampaign ensconced in hyperbole.
The book is based on incisive and critical analysis of the officialnarrative of 26/11 and the author has endeavored to go through courtdocuments and testimonies of dozens of important witnesses and theirlinkages with media outbursts parroted by Indian media
According to the author, the number of terrorists who committed the deedschanged repeatedly, as did the number of terrorists who survived. Crimescenes were violated, with bodies hauled off before they could be examined.Claims that the terrorists were armed with AK-47s were common, yet forensicstudy of the attack at the Cama Hospital failed to turn up a single AK-47bullet.
One of his conclusions from the book say that that India’s majorinstitutions were suppressing the truth on 26/11.
On the global front, India accuses Pakistani terrorists for planning andexecuting attacks in Mumbai, which Pakistan categorically denies.
