Key Arrests in LeT Terror Module Case
On April 7, Jammu and Kashmir police achieved a major success in its counter-terror campaign by arresting five LeT operatives, including Abdullah, alias Abu Hureira, who has been on the run for 16 years and was able to set up bases outside the union territory.
Besides Abdullah, another Pakistani terrorist, Usman alias Khubaib and three Srinagar residents – – Mohammad Naqeeb Bhat, Adil Rashid and Ghulam Mohammad Mir alias Mama – – were also arrested in the major operation that involved police in Jammu and Kashmir as well as central agencies.
NIA Investigation and Court Remand
The probe unearthed a deep-rooted LeT network involved in providing logistics and financial support to terrorists.
After taking over the case for further investigation, the Agency produced the arrested terrorists before the special NIA court in Jammu on Monday, the officials said.
The court remanded all five accused terrorists to the Agency’s custody, officials said. While the two Pakistani nationals were granted two-day remand, the three local terrorists were sent to 15-day custody.
