Following up leads of various terrorists, lead back

The three acclaimed authors lashed out at Pakistan and its leadership for not taking any action against terrorists and denying that those responsible for the Mumbai strike were Pakistani despite credible proof.
'British Prime Minister Gordon Brown two days ago said that British intelligence, following up leads of various terrorists' activities, informed him that 75 percent of what they studied led back to Pakistan,' Rushdie said.
He also took on the US government for handing over billions of dollars in aid without ensuring that Islamabad was really fighting terrorism. 'We have treated Pakistan with velvet gloves and what we have got in result is zero.'
He said that only two months ago the Zardari government authorised the purchase of an armoured vehicle for a Lashkar-e-Taiba leader. 'So he is driving around Pakistan in an armoured vehicle purchased by the army of Pakistan.'

Can you explain to me the emboldened parts?
