“The Da Lakhvi Code” continues ……

The ‘1..’ at the end of the message in all probability meant 001, which perhaps implied that messages should be routed through the US, the calling code for which is 001.
The mention of ‘football’, which could be a code word for a bomb or a lethal weapon, and a ‘match’ after which the sender desired to be informed, set alarm bells ringing.
The next email we intercepted was sent on the same date, 13 February, twenty-seven minutes later. It read as follows:

Rashid bhai, AOA*, Aapke zimme hai. Wahan sab kuch match ki tareekh fix hone tak players ka khayal rakhna. Aapke zimme hai. Koi baat hogi toh kya karna hai aap achi tarah jaante ho. Zaid.
[Rashid brother, the mission is your responsibility, until such time that the date of the match is not fixed, you have to take care of the players. This too is your responsibility. You know what needs to be done if anything goes wrong. Zaid.]

The above-mentioned message came from chachoji@hotmail. com and was sent to rashid32XXXX@hotmail.com. Our guess, as already mentioned, was that ‘Chachoji’ was none other than Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi.
The email clearly implied that a plan for a terrorist attack, masterminded by Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi, was afoot. Our apprehension was further strengthened by an email we intercepted the following day (14 February), again from chachoji@hotmail.com to rashid32XXXX@hotmail.com. It read:
Dear Rashid,
AOA. Match ka date fix ho gaya hai. World cup ka final 25 ko tay hua hai. Time wahi hai match ka. Best of luck. Zaid.
[Dear Rashid, Allah is great. The date for the match is fixed. The World Cup final is on 25 February. Time of the match is the same. Best of luck. Zaid.]
