Jammu,June 18
Army authorities have found
that foreign mercenaries,operating in Jammu and
Kashmir,”do not surrender before the security
forces.” Even those who are challenged on the LOC
by the Indian troops while trying to sneak into the state
either
get killed or manage to escape back.
According to the GOC-in-Chief Northern Command,
Lt.Gen.H.S.Panag,”foreign mercenaries come to
Kashmir for launching Jehad while being on a tour of
beauty.” He said “the foreign mercenaries are told to
cross over to Kashmir,enjoy its beauty and return
after launching Jehad.”He said “they do not surrender
because they have a task assigned to them by their
patrons across the
border.”
During his interaction with mediamen in Udhampur
yesterday Gen. Panag said that the pattern of the
ongoing insurgency has not witnessed any change.
In this connection he referred to the recent statement
of Muzaffarabad based United Jehad Council
Chief,Syed Salahuddin,in which he had stated that
there was no change in its agenda.He said that in the
context of this statement do not expect the troops
to change their pattern of counter insurgency
pattern as well. Giving details of the total number of surrender
this year,Lt Gen Panag said no foreign mercenary surrendered this year.
He said local youth are being motivated to take benefit of surrender
policy and they often join mainstream but not foreign mercenaries.(
