Jammu, July 25: Pakistan's nexus with terror groups have been exposed after the killing of a terrorist Shariq Altaf Baba during the ongoing fierce encounter in the forest of North Kashmir’s Bandipora district.
During the 36-hour-long ongoing gun battle three terrorists, including two foreigners, have been killed by the security forces.
Shariq Baba was among the three terrorists killed in the ongoing encounter, and they were part of the infiltrators who have reportedly managed to sneak into this side of the border through the Line of Control (LoC).
Baba had travelled to Pakistan on a valid visa through the Wagha border Instead of entering Pakistan through LoC for arms training, Shariq has travelled on a valid visa through the Wagha border in the year 2018.
Baba had reportedly applied for a visa to get education in Pakistan. On the official record, he was getting education in Pakistan.
After getting terror training in the guise of education, Shariq had reportedly infiltrated along with some foreigners through LoC to reactive terror activities in North Kashmir.
Inspector-General of Police (IGP) Kashmir, Vijay Kumar said that Shariq, a resident of Bandipora, had exfiltrated via Wagah border in 2018 and had infiltrated recently through LoC. Shariq was affiliated with Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) terror outfit.
The other two terrorists killed in the gunfight at the Sumlar-Aragam area are believed to be foreigners.
Shariq is not an isolated case report that said that nearly 100 Kashmiri youths, who travelled to Pakistan on valid visas for short durations, have either disappeared after their return or not come back in the last three years.
In the year 2019, five terrorists were killed along the LoC in Tangdar area of Kashmir Valley. The probe revealed that four of the five Kashmiri terrorists killed had travelled to Pakistan for terror training on a valid visa through the Wagah border.
Reports said that security agencies have been collecting data of Kashmiri youths who travelled on a valid visa for durations ranging more than seven days over the last three years.
As per media reports, the figures were astonishing and in some of the cases, it was found that the youths never returned and in other cases, they disappeared after their return.
Some youth, who travelled to Pakistan were called for questioning and a proper analysis of their activities after their return was being carried out by the security agencies. |
