Early Times Report

JAMMU, Nov 11: Security forces continued their search operation in the dense forests of Keshwan and adjoining areas in Jammu and Kashmir’s Kishtwar district on Monday, a day after an Army officer was martyred in a gunfight with terrorists holed up in the area.
The security personnel have been scouring the forest area for over four days, looking for the terrorists who abducted and martyred two Village Defence Guards (VDGs) last Thursday.
Sunday’s encounter broke out when joint search parties of the Army and police intercepted the terrorists around 11 am in the Keshwan forest area. The exchange of fire went on for more than four hours.
A Junior Commissioned Officer (JCO), Naib Subedar Rakesh Kumar of the Army’s 2 Para, was killed and three more soldiers were injured in the gunfight.
Officials said there has been no fresh contact with the terrorists since Sunday’s encounter.
They said three to four terrorists, responsible for the killings, are still holed up in the area and a massive search operation is underway to neutralise them.
The officials added that thick foliage and challenging topography pose a challenge for the security personnel relentlessly chasing the trail to hunt down the terrorists.
