Here is more proof that the "True Indian" who
proclaims himself an expert cracker, is a total
fraudster, and that the Financial Express front page
story was totally false and a hoax.

http://www.lashkar-e-toiba.org, which is what "True
Indian" has claimed to have cracked, is not at all the
website of Mujahideen Lashkar-e-Taiba. It is actually
http://www.markazdawa.org which is the official
website of the Mujahideen Lashkar-e-Taiba. 

This is because Lashkar-e-Taiba is the military wing
of Markaz Ad-Da'wah Wal Irshad, and is headed by Abu
Omar whose email is markazdawa@hotmail.com

http://www.markazdawa.org remains untouched.

Financial Express should have verified the
authenticity of the story before it ran in on its
front page. The Press Council of India should take
note of such irresponsible journalism.

True Indian was the hoaxer who fraudulently claimed to
have cracked into the website of the government of
Pakistan which he claimed was http://www.pakgov.org.
This was totally false. He had registered the domain 
http://www.pakgov.org and put up bogus material. The
actual Pakistan government site is www.pak.gov.pk,
which remained untouched.
