Abstract
The state Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) traced an email supposed sent by the Indian Mujahideen to the WiFi network at Khalsa College in Matunga. It seems an unknown individual or unknown individuals compromised the WiFi network at the college and used this access to send an email with photographs of cars stolen for use in terror activities. The log files for the WiFi network were deleted by this individual or these individuals shortly after the email was sent. The ATS confiscated some equipment from the college and is now looking to work with VSNL and Google to trace the email.
