With the help of local people, Jammu and Kashmir Police have arrested two dangerous Lashkar-e-Taiba terrorists from Tuksan village of Reasi district. These include the mastermind of the conspiracy to attack the yatra of Baba Amarnath. Two heavily armed Lashkar-e-Taiba terrorists were apprehended by villagers and handed over to the police in Jammu and Kashmir’s Reasi district, an official said. Lashkar Taiba had hatched a conspiracy to attack the Amarnath Yatra. For this, the Amarnath Yatra was to be targeted on the Jammu-Srinagar National Highway.
Talib Hussain had earlier trialed by blasting two IDs in Rajouri. Then he escaped from Rajouri with the weapons dropped by the drone. Although two of his accomplices were caught by the police in Rajouri only a week ago. According to police sources, Faisal Ahmed, a resident of Kashmir, is a category A terrorist of Lashkar-e-Taiba. He was asked to approach Talib Hussain to attack the Amarnath Yatra from across the border. Talib Hussain conspired to attack the yatra and both reached the village of Tuksan in Reasi district.
