Pakistan-based militant outfits have chalked-out a fresh plan to send maximum number of highly trained militants into the Indian territory before the snowfall.
Latest inputs with the Central intelligence agencies reveal that top commanders of Lashkar-e-Tayyaba (LeT) and Hizbul Mujahideen (HM) held a meeting in Kotli area of P
ak-occupied-Kashmir (PoK) last month and chalked-out a fresh plan of sending militants into the Indian territory. According to sources, the meeting was also attended by senior ISI officials. The first batch of trained militants will soon be asked to initiate the infiltration bid. “Available inputs indicate that a group of 14 HM and 15 LeT militants have arrived at the launching pad located at Kel in PoK. The group is guided by Rafiq Khan, a resident of Khan Basti, Ringbala, and are likely to infiltrate into Indian territory through Kupwara in Jammu and Kashmir”, sources said.
“Another group of 10 LeT and HM militants are campaigning at Shardi launching pad in PoK. The commander of LeT is Mushtaq Baba, resident of Bandipur, and commander of HM is Imran Rahi. They are being guided by Sarfaraj Ward, a Kupwara resident. This group is likely to infiltrate into Indian territory through Sonapindi,” sources said.
Radio conversation between code A-1 (HM control station, PoK) and code 01 (HM base headquarters in PoK), intercepted on June 15, 20010, revealed that another group of newly trained militants had already reached near Kel, sources said, adding that this group is likely to infiltrate into the Indian territory any moment. Border guarding forces along the international border in J&K are already on high alert after this input.
Besides, another group of eight militants of LeT is campaigning in a new building near Khoje Chak Adda, Bajawat, in PoK. Leader of this group is Haji Nishar, a resident of Hamirpur, Pakistan. They are reportedly carrying out recce in area of Chinor and Ikramabad (Chenab river bed area).
