New Delhi: CBI has sent a judicial request to Pakistan seeking to establish the identity of Amjad Ali Rana and Zeeshan Johar who were killed in the Ahmedabad encounter along with 19-year-old Ishrat Jahan nearly nine years ago.
The agency had carried out detailed search in Kashmir even though it was alleged that Rana and Johar were Pakistani terrorists who had infiltrated India.
The search met a dead end in the state as the agency could not gather any tangible evidence on their identity, CBI sources said.
CBI spokesperson said that a Letters Rogatory has been sent to Pakistan to gather any information available on Rana and Johar who were killed with Ishrat and Javed Pillai in what was alleged to be a fake encounter in 2004.
