"Jundal revealed that he managed to hide in Saudi Arabia for a good period as he used different SIM cards and email addresses in fake names," a police official said.

"Jundal stated he had used at least four email addresses and 10 international SIM cards -- all in fake names -- to hoodwink security agencies and remain in touch with his Lashkar operatives in Pakistan," the official said.

The Lashkar operative did not want to move to Saudi but the LeT bosses insisted him to operate from there after his name surfaced following revelation by Mohammed Ajmal Amir Kasab during the trial of the 26/11 attacks, according to the police.

Jundal was arrested in the 26/11 case on July 21 after he was brought here from Delhi where he was apprehended in an another case.
