New Delhi, Dec 21 (KNO): The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has charge-sheeted two accused in a J&K arms and explosives seizure case linked with the banned terrorist organization Hizb-ul-Mujahideeen (HM).
According to the news agency—the investigation agency in a statement said that the charge-sheet has been filed before the NIA Special Court, Jammu, against Waheed Ul Zahoor, the driver of the vehicle from which explosives, arms and ammunition etc were recovered, and another accused Mubashir Maqbool Mir.
“Both the charge-sheeted accused were in contact with their Pakistan-based HM handlers. The seizure of the explosives, arms and other incriminating material took place on June-30-2024 at a ‘Naka’ set up by security forces at Machipora, Rashidabad in district Baramulla,” it reads.
It also said that the security personnel signaled the vehicle, driven by Waheed, to stop, but the driver tried to flee the spot and was nabbed. A search of his car and his person had then led to the seizure.
“During investigation, the driver disclosed his links with HM, for whom he was working as an over ground worker (OGW). Further searches at Waheed’s house in Mujgung, Sringagar, led to the recovery of some more incriminating materials,” reads the statement.
The NIA further said that the probe also led to the identification of Mubashir Maqbool Mir as a conspirator in the case. “He was also subsequently arrested.”
The investigation agency further said, “It was further revealed during investigation that Mubashir was also providing financial assistance to the accused. Investigations in the case RC-6/2024/NIA/JMU are continuing as part of NIA’s attempts to unveil the entire conspiracy and ascertain the intended destination of the arms and other materials.”— (KNO)
