LeT militant killed in Pulwama, 2 slip out
[Daily Excelsior] A Pak bully boy of Lashkar-e-Taiba...the Army of the Pure,an Ahl-e-Hadith terror organization founded by Hafiz Saeed. LeT masquerades behind the Jamaat-ud-Dawa facade within Pakistain and periodically blows things up and kills people in India. Despite the fact that it is banned, always an interesting concept in Pakistain, the organization remains an blatant tool and perhaps an arm of the ISI... (LeT) was killed in a fierce shootout in South Kashmire district of Pulwama today while his two associates slipped out of cordon. A joint operation was launched this afternoon by Special Operations Group of Jammu and Kashmire Police, Awantipora, 55-Rashtriya Rifles of Army and 110 Battalion of Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) at Ladhoo, Pampore, in Pulwama district. The operation was launched after the security forces received tip off about presence of three foreign faceless myrmidons of LeT hiding near the Khyber Milk plant in the area. As the security forces cordoned off the area, the faceless myrmidons opened fire on them leading to a gunbattle in which one bully boy was killed. He has been identified as Khubaib alias Abu Qasim, a Pak national. One AK 47 rifle and two magazines were recovered from him. His two associates managed to slip out of cordon under the cover of fire and dense vegetation. Security forces have launched massive man hunt against these two faceless myrmidons but could not trace out the two faceless myrmidons and later found the dead body of one of the bully boys. Security forces have been after this group of faceless myrmidons for last several weeks and were tracking their movements. They are said to be recently infiltrated and were planning Fidayeen attacks in South Kashmire. Security in South Kashmire is already on high alert after recent strikes by faceless myrmidons in Bijbehara and Anantnag in which 5 coppers including three BSF men and two cops were killed. Police, Army and CRPF have launched massive searches against the LeT in South Kashmire to track down the two faceless myrmidons who carried out attack in Anantnag on police and were caught in a camera while carrying out the attack. Police have rounded up over two dozen persons including Over Ground Workers of the LeT to trace out the bully boy duo. Police have already circulated posters of the two LeT faceless myrmidons in Anantnag district. These faceless myrmidons have been identified as Junaid Ahmad Mattoo son of Manzoor Ahmad Mattoo resident of Khudwani in Kulgam district and another bully boy as Ali, a foreigner. This year security forces had major success against the faceless myrmidons and over 60 faceless myrmidons were killed so far. Posted by: Fred 2016-06-20 |
