The Pulwama terror attack, that claimed the lives of 40 CRPF personnel on February 14, was coordinated through virtual SIM or virtual phone numbers.

Officials investigating the case have revealed that the suicide bomber, Adil Dar, was in constant touch with Jaish-e-Mohammad handler in Pakistan through a virtual SIM number.

The user gets a virtual SIM by downloading  an application of the service provider on his smartphone. He gets a number from the service provider after getting a verification code.

Mobile numbers of the virtual SIMs used by terrorists who carried out the Pulwama attack were prefixed by +1, the area code of the United States, which means that the virtual SIM was generated by a service provider in America.

India will now send a request to the US, seeking details of the service provider of virtual SIMs who perpetrated the February 14th attack. In addition, details on who activated the virtual SIM and Internet Protocol addresses will  also be sought.

In IN DEPTH today, let's understand what virtual SIM is? How does the technology work? How did terrorists of the JeM get access to virtual SIMs and how it helped them to avoid being tracked.
