All 3 Pahalgam terrorists different from those whose sketches J&K Police had released: Report
In a shocking turn of events, the Jammu and Kashmir Police have revealed that the three terrorists involved in the recent attack on Pahalgam, a popular tourist destination in Anantnag district, are different from the ones whose sketches were released earlier. This revelation has sparked a fresh debate on the effectiveness of the police’s investigation and the intelligence gathering mechanism in the state.
As per reports, the police had released sketches of the attackers based on a picture found on the phone of JR Bhat, who was a co-accused in the Z-Morh tunnel terrorist attack. Bhat was killed in a gunfight with security forces earlier this year. The picture showed Bhat with three other militants, which the police reportedly used to create the sketches.
However, the Indian Express reported that the actual terrorists involved in the Pahalgam attack are different from the ones whose sketches were released. The report suggests that the police’s investigation has revealed that the attackers were from Pakistan and were involved in previous terrorist activities.
One of the attackers, Suleiman Shah, is reportedly involved in the Z-Morh tunnel terrorist attack, which was carried out in 2014. Shah’s involvement in the Pahalgam attack has raised concerns about the extent of the terrorist network in the state.
The revelation has also raised questions about the credibility of the police’s investigation and the intelligence gathering mechanism in the state. The police had released the sketches of the attackers and had even claimed to have identified them, but it appears that the investigation was flawed from the beginning.
The National Investigation Agency (NIA) is also probing the case and has collected evidence from the crime scene. The agency has reportedly collected DNA samples and other forensic evidence, which are being analyzed to identify the attackers.
The Pahalgam attack, which took place on August 8, left three police personnel dead and several others injured. The attackers had stormed the police camp in the town and had engaged the security forces in a fierce gun battle.
The attack has sent shockwaves across the state, with many calling for tighter security measures to prevent such incidents in the future. The government has also promised to take stern action against those responsible for the attack and has vowed to bring them to justice.
The Pahalgam attack is the latest in a series of terrorist attacks in the state, which has been reeling under the grip of terrorism for decades. The state has seen many terrorist attacks in the past, including attacks on security forces, civilians, and tourists.
The attacks have had a significant impact on the state’s economy, with many tourists deciding to boycott the state due to the security concerns. The state government has been trying to improve the security situation in the state, but the attacks have continued to occur.
In conclusion, the revelation that the three Pahalgam terrorists are different from those whose sketches were released by the Jammu and Kashmir Police has raised concerns about the credibility of the police’s investigation and the intelligence gathering mechanism in the state. The attack has sent shockwaves across the state, and the government has promised to take stern action against those responsible. The state needs to improve its security measures to prevent such incidents in the future and ensure the safety and security of its citizens.
