Sources revealed that a GPS chip recovered from the possession of Davis was being used in identifying targets for drone attacks in the tribal region.

The 36- year-old US official was hesitant in giving out information about his visits to the tribal region during investigations, sources said.

The US Embassy officials were also exerting pressure on the investigation teams, asking them not to expose the information received from Davis.

It was also learned that Davis made upto 12 visits to the tribal areas without informing Pakistani officials.

The Punjab government has shared the investigation and the possessions recovered from Davis with the federal government, said sources.
