Four jihadi Bigs nabbed for getting rich on revolution
The Inter Service Intelligence of Pakistan is reported to have arrested the convener of the All-Parties Hurriyat Conference along with three other militant leaders in Muzaffarabad for misappropriation of funds meant for the Kashmir cause. Local newspapers carried news about the arrest of Hurriyat convener Mohammad Siddique Ganai of Sopore, Sammer Khan of Pampore, Gulam Nabi Bhat of Batrgam in Kupwara and Abdul Ghani Beigh of Kupwara. All the arrested militant leaders had been deputed by the ISI to channelise funds to Jammu and Kashmir to sustain militancy in the state. Their bank accounts have been frozen by the Pakistani authorities. In the past 12 years, the Kashmiri militants are said to have acquired property, including houses in various parts of Pakistan, and other assets. They also own expensive vehicles.
Last year, the PoK authorities had arrested two leaders of the Hizbullah outfit for swindling huge funds slated for the Kashmir cause.
