| POK militants will try to infiltrate during winter also: General Officer Commanding | | | early times report
Uri, Line of Control, Dec 14 : Cautioning that the security situation in Afghanistan and Pakistan in 2012 will influence the peace in Kashmir, a senior Army officer today said desperate attempts would continue from across the Line of Control (LoC) to send trained militants into the valley during winter also.
Immediately after Russian troops left Afghanistan, militants from Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir infiltrated into Kashmir to disturb peace, General Officer Commanding (GOC) of 15 Corps Lt General Syed Ata Hasnain told reporters here.
He said the militants, who were fighting against the Russian troops, later infiltrated into Kashmir and joined local militants to cause disturbances.
He said at present security developments in Afghanistan and Pakistan also suggest that by next year militants, fighting against NATO forces, would find their way into Kashmir.
Lt Gen Hasnain said the troops guarding the LoC were already on high alert to foil any such attempt.
"We will not lower our guard even when the infiltration routes are closed due to heavy snowfall," he said, adding that militants would now try to take other routes, including Uri, to sneak into this side during winter season.
