The two Pakistani terrorists, involved in the attack on the American centre last week and killed in an encounter with police in Kolkata on Monday belonged to Pakistan-based terrorist outfit Lashkar e-Toiba, a top police official said on Tuesday.

Soumen Mitra, deputy commissioner of police, Kolkata told on Tuesday that this was proved by the dying declaration of one of the slain terrorists, Zaheed.
Mitra, who is leading the special investigating team in Kolkata, said the declaration of Zaheed also tallied with the statement recorded by Kolkata police from the eye-witnesses to the strike.
