Jammu: Three days after the terrorist attack on security forces in Pampore, the intelligence agencies have warned that Majid Zargar, Lashkar-e-Toiba's, LeT new operational commander in the Kulgam district, may be preparing for fresh ‘fidayeen' attack in the coming days.
According to a report in ‘The Indian Express', some Lashkar ‘fidayeen' from the same group of infiltrators which attacked the security forces in Pampore have been dispatched to Majid Zargar for carrying out more attacks in the Kashmkir Valley at an opportune time.
The intelligence agencies have warned that the LeT unit, which carried out Saturday's strike on the CRPF, is preparing for a fresh ‘fidayeen' attack on military targets.
Following the attack, Dar is believed to have driven to a hideout near his home village, to join up with two of the four ‘fidayeen' originally assigned to him. The four were from a group of elite fighters sent across the Line of Control in mid-June.
On Friday, Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar said that he “doubted if the Standard Operating Procedure was followed properly” — in what was widely read as a criticism of the CRPF.
However, security officials in both New Delhi and Jammu and Kashmir have told the Home Ministry that responsibility for securing the CRPF unit's movement along the highway lay with the Army.
