A court on Friday allowed the police to take Fahim Ansari, a suspected Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) activist lodged in the Bareilly Central Jail, to Mumbai for questioning about the Mumbai terror attacks.

Rampur Additional Sessions Judge Jai Sheel Pathak Friday gave the police the permission to take Fahim Ansari alias Abu Zarrar to Mumbai. The police suspect his involvement in the November 26 Mumbai terror attack in which at least 170 people were killed.

Earlier, the Mumbai metropolitan magistrate had ordered the Mumbai Anti Terrorism Squad to bring Fahim Ansari from Bareilly Central Jail to Mumbai.

Fahim is already charged with orchestrating a terror attack on a Central Reserve Police Force camp in Rampur with grenades and other weapons in the early hours of January 1, 2008.
