| Indos grab a Hizbul controller |
| 2002-06-22 |
| Another seizure of Rs 1,290,000 was made from the Doda residence of arrested Hizbul Mujahideen finance chief Mohammad Ramzan Bhat, a spokesman said on Saturday. Bhat was arrested on June 19 and nearly Rs 700,000 in cash, besides documents and diaries containing details about hawala transactions to Hizbul cadres. The latest recovery was made on Friday following disclosures made by Bhat during interrogation. Bhat was working as a teacher in a private school of former Jamaat-i-Islami leader and chairman of Jammu and Kashmir Freedom Movement, Said-ullah Tantray, who has been jailed under Public Safety Act. He was also involved in sending youths for arms training across the border, payments to the families of slain militants and issuing fake identity cards, police said. A number of fake stamps of government authorities and certificates of various organisations was also recovered from Bhat. Nice snag for the Indos. Ain't it a coincidence that this goober was a "teacher" in a madrassah run by a JI Big? That seems to tie JI to Hizb, which we knew, and to the J&K Freedumb Movement front organization. |
