Indian agencies tracing the source of the email sent by an outfit calling itself Deccan Mujahideen to a TV channel claiming
Though other locations are yet to be traced, the experts — who took help of different foreign agencies — found that the terrorists used a Russian server to avail the remailer service which is the most secure and least traceable way to send emails.
An official said the text document sent by the hitherto unknown Deccan Mujahideen was generated using voice-recognition software which allows dictated text to be typed in Devnagri script.
Contrary to the normal Internet service which can easily trace the origin of an email through IP address
"There are a number of software available for the remailer service that lets one send anonymous email easily through a web interface. Some others make it really easy to send email messages
In the wake of terror attacks on earlier occasions, Indian Mujahideen — a splinter group of the banned SIMI — had sent as many as five emails written in English. While the first two, after serial blasts in UP courts and Jaipur, were sent from cyber cafes in Delhi and Sahibabad respectively, the remaining ones had been sent using Wi-Fi system from Mumbai after serial blasts in Ahmedabad and Delhi.
"Origin of all these emails were traced within hours through the IP addresses. But this time, the terrorists made the task of the cops tough due to use of remailer service," the official said.
Investigators believe that the terror masterminds might have done this knowing the fate of earlier emails -- yet another pointer of their being associated at some level even though the earlier strikes had been carried out by locals in the name of IM.
