2023 Rajouri attack: NIA chargesheets three Pakistan nationals among five

The Fact News Service

New Delhi, February 27

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) on Monday charge-sheeted three absconding Pakistan-based handlers of the banned Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) outfit among five involved in the Rajouri attacks case of January 2023– a move to push ahead with its efforts to destroy and dismantle the terrorist ecosystem in Jammu and Kashmir.

The case relates to a heinous terror attack on civilians at village Dhangri in Rajouri district on January 1 last year, followed by an IED blast the next day. Seven innocent people, including two children, were killed and several others severely injured in the attacks.

Three of chargesheeted individuals are LeT handlers, identified as Saifullah alias Sajid Jutt alias Ali alias Habibullah alias Numan alias Langda alias Noumi, Mohd Qasim, and Abu Qatal alias Qatal Sindhi, said the NIA.

While Abu Qatal and Sajit Jutt are Pakistani nationals, Qasim had been exfiltrated to Pakistan sometime around 2002 and had joined the LeT terrorist ranks there.
