Early Times Report
Jammu, Jan 16: Two Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) operatives were on Monday chargesheeted in a case related to a grenade attack on a house in Rajouri district of Jammu and Kashmir in 2021, resulting in the killing of a minor boy and injuries to several others, an official said.
The chargesheet against the arrested accused, Altaf Hussain Shah of Draj village of Rajouri, and his Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK)-based associate Mohammad Qasim alias Suleiman, was filed before the court of third additional sessions judge, Jammu.
On August 12, 2021 terrorists struck in the heart of Rajouri town and threw a grenade at the residence of BJP Mandal president killing his two-year-old nephew and injuring six family members including the BJP leader, two of them seriously.
The blast was triggered by a grenade lobbed by the terrorists in which seven persons were injured and one of them, an infant, later succumbed to the wounds at the hospital.
The deceased has been identified as two-year-old Veer Singh son of Balbir Singh and nephew of BJP Mandal president Jasbir Singh, an ex-serviceman whose house was targeted by the terrorists at Khandli bridge Chowk in the heart of Rajouri town.
Reports said that on the direction of PoJK-based terrorist Qasim was behind this gruesome attack.
Qasim, originally a resident of Angrala village of Mahore in Reasi district, is absconding and his name cropped up during the investigation of the case, exposing the terror network in Jammu and Kashmir and PoK.
The accused were chargesheeted under relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code, Explosive Act and Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, the official said.
Shah and his Kashmiri associate Faisal Ahmad Dar of Pulwama were overpowered by the villagers of remote Tukson Dhok in Reasi district in July last year and later handed over to police.
Two AK assault rifles, a pistol, seven grenades and a large quantity of ammunition were recovered from them.
On December 30, Jammu and Kashmir State Investigation Agency had filed a chargesheet against Shah, Qasim and two other LeT operatives in another case related to smuggling of arms and explosives by drones and recruitment of youth in the prescribed outfit to revive the terror ecosystem in different districts of Jammu region. |
