The captured Pakistani terrorist Mohammed Naved Yakub was today taken to New Delhi from Jammu for further questioning.

NIA chief Sharad Kumar yesterday flew to Jammu to interrogate LeT's Pakistani militant Naved, who was captured during an attack on a BSF bus last week.
Soon after arriving here at 1130 hours, Kumar reached the Joint Interrogation Centre (JIC) at Miran Sahib on the outskirts of the city where he interrogated the militant, sources said.
At 1310 hours, he left for Udhampur district that left two BSF personnel and a terrorist dead.
Kumar also visited Udhampur where terror attack took place on Wednesday.
He held meeting of police officers of Udhampur at Sheri Kashmir Police Academy, inspected the bus which was fired upon by the militants and personally spoke with the injured BSF jawans at military hospital in Udhampur yesterday.
He also met some people connected with case. He also reported to have met army officers at Northern Command.
In a reply to reporters' question while he was leaving from JIC at Miran sahib, Kumar said he had come to "ascertain the facts and review the case personally".
Sources in the agency, which had sought Naved's custody for further investigation, had yesterday said that he could be sent to Delhi for further questioning.
