It is pertinent to mention here that during the last many months several incidents of dropping of narcotics, cash, arms, ammunitions, IEDs, etc along the LoC from Pakistan through drones have increased.
“All the identified members were involved in receiving and distributing arms, ammunition, explosives, cash, IEDs and narcotics dropped through drones from across the border,” said DGP.
The arrested persons have been identified as Gulshan Naaz wife of notorious arrested and jailed OGW Talib Hussain Shah resident of Draj village (presently at Kotranka), her brother Abid Shah and Imitiaz Ahmed resident of Larkuti (Kotranka) and as per sources his brother is also a terrorist.
Talib Hussain Shah r/o Draj (Kotranka) and self-styled LeT commander was captured by the people at Tuksan Dhok (pasture) in Reasi district in the month of July 2022 along with Faizal Ahmed Dar r/o Pulwama and the police recovered 2 AK-47 rifles, 7 grenades, one pistol and large quantity of ammunition from their possession.
DGP, RR Swain said that the mastermind of the module is Mohd Qasim Gujjar @ Sulliman of Mahore r/o Reasi district and presently operating from Sialkot in Pakistan.
Mohd Qasim has been declared a designated terrorist by the Government of India, and J&K police have announced a Rs ten lakh award on Qasim & a poster was also released.
DGP, RR Swain further said that Qasim is involved in sending arms and explosive material, cash, and narcotics, and is involved in networking in Rajouri and Poonch districts & is also luring people, especially youth to join militancy through VPN & PoIP networking.
DGP appealed to the youth not to fall prey to his (Qasim’s) nefarious design and report any such suspicious activity.
“We have digital and electronic evidence against them (arrested OGWs) as they were in touch with the mastermind in Pakistan. They have also distributed money in lakhs to forward linkages & investigation against them is also going on,” DGP said.
DGP added that after it was proved against these accused persons that they have received & distributed (to forward linkages) consignments dropped through drones from Pakistan, cases were registered against them.
“In a planned manner, a joint team of Jammu Zone police & Crime Investigation Bureau (CIB) raided ten places during the last 24 hours and out of seven identified accused three were arrested in Rajouri district” said DGP.
