New Delhi: From Monday, the JIT team will be given evidence that points to the attack being planned from across the border in Pakistan. Seven security personnel were killed in the attack.
In the post-lunch session, the Pakistani team will be raising their set of questions to the NIA investigators to clear doubts, if any, before they fly to Pathankot in a special plane on Tuesday morning, the sources said.

The IAF airbase will be visually barricaded by the NIA to prevent any view of its critical areas and a NIA team will show some of the areas where the Jaish-e-Mohammed terrorists were engaged in an 80-hour-long gunbattle with the security forces. India plans to provide the Pakistani probe team access to all witnesses in the Pathankot attack case but not security personnel from National Security Guard or the BSF.
The sources said cooperation to the Pakistani team would be based on the principle of reciprocity, hoping an Indian team will be allowed to travel to Pakistan at a later date.

The NIA will also share details about the four terrorists, which includes their native villages, people who had cooperated with them and facilitated their entry into India through Bamiyal village on the Indo-Pak border.
