The suspected Pakistan-trained militant, who was arrested on Bangalore outskirts, had visited Infosys and Wipro to find out the security arrangements there for a possible terror strike as per instructions of top insurgents in Pakistan with alleged LeT links, his questioning revealed.

Sources say he was visiting the moles already in place in those companies.
