Top militant leaders adopt new strategy to dodge security

13 May 2011

Jammu, May 13 (PTI) Militants in Jammu and Kashmir have adopted a new strategy to divert attention of security forces from their top commanders by spreading canard of their death. Militant outfit Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) has unleashed a propaganda that its top commander of Rajouri-Poonch border region, Abu Huzefa, against whom security forces have launched several operations, was drowned in a river in Poonch district, a senior police official said. "As per recent intercepts of LeT militants, two commanders, Hajula (Huzefa) and Osama were drowned in Suran river during an operation in Surakote belt of Poonch district a few days back," Inspector General of Police (IGP) Jammu Zone, Dilbagh Singh said here. This input made security forces fan out in large numbers to locate the bodies but in vain. Surprisingly, there is no stream in the area, he said. Huzefa, a dreaded terrorist commander hailing from Punjab Province in Pakistan, is the backbone of LeT. He had survived several encounters. LeT over ground workers (OGW) network also started a campaign saying Huzefa and his accomplice Umer had drowned and got washed away in a fast flowing stream near Bafliaz. The intelligence agencies feel it is an attempt by the LeT to mislead the security forces. PTI AB SMI
