BANDIPORA, Oct 11: Inspector General of Police Kashmir Vijay Kumar on Monday said that a LeT militant killed in Bandipora was involved in the recent killing of a Sumo Driver at Shahgund.
Taking on to official Twitter handler, Kashmir Zone Police quoting IGP wrote, “Killed militant has been identified as Imtiyaz Ahmad Dar affiliated with proscribed militant outfit LeT (TRF). He was involved in the recent civilian killing at Shahgund Bandipora: IGP Kashmir, “.
However in a statement police said that, during the intervening night of 10/11 October, on a specific input Bandipora Police conducted an anti-terrorist operation while as one chance encounter also took place in Anantnag resulting in killing of two terrorists including Imtiyaz Ahmad Dar of LeT (TRF) involved in recent Shahgund civilian killing.
In the wee hours, based on specific input about the presence of terrorists in village Gund Jahangir area of Bandipora, a joint cordon and search operation was launched by Police, 13RR and 47Bn CRPF in the said area.
During the search operation, as the presence of terrorists got ascertained they were given the opportunity to surrender, however, they fired indiscriminately upon the joint search party which retaliated leading to an encounter.
In the ensuing encounter, one terrorist identified as Imtiyaz Ahmad Dar affiliated with proscribed terror outfit LeT (TRF) was killed and his body was retrieved from the site of encounter. It is pertinent to mention that the killed terrorist was the main accused in the killing of a civilian Mohd Shafi alias Sonu at Shahgund. He joined terror folds after the Police unearthed the module involved in planning and executing the said killing and the other involved terror associates have already been arrested.
Meanwhile on Sunday police in Bandipora claimed to have busted a LeT (TRF) module and arrested four terror associates involved in the conspiracy behind the killing of a civilian namely Mohd Shafi Lone alias Sonu a resident of Naidkhai.
A special team of Bandipora Police was entrusted with the investigation of the case and after thorough human and technical corroboration, the module was busted by arresting four terrorist associates of LeT (TRF).
The arrested terrorist associates have been identified as Tariq Ahmad Dar @Tariq Khoucha, Mohammad Shafi Dar, Mudasir Hassan Lone and Bilal Ah Dar @Sahb Khoucha. However, one of the terrorist associates involved in the killing, identified as Imtiyaz Ah Dar @Kotru is absconding and has reportedly joined the terrorist ranks.
During the course of investigation, it surfaced that the killing was carried out at the behest and instruction of LeT (TRF) handler Lala Umar, a resident of Pakistan. To carry out the nefarious design, a conspiracy was hatched by a LeT (TRF) module of Shahgund, Hajin area. The module carried out a thorough recce of the target and all his movements were closely watched.
On the fateful evening, one of the terrorist associates called the victim for a meeting at Gundboon and after reaching the said place, a detailed ambush/trap had already been laid by the other members of the module, the victim was swiftly assassinated.
In this regard, a case vide FIR No 76/2021 has been registered at Police Station Hajin under relevant sections of law and further investigation is going on.
