Police are trying to ascertain whether this suspect had any connection to the Pahalgam terror attack that left 26 people, including foreign tourists, dead on April 22.

Houses of three more terrorists demolished in J&K

The houses of three more terrorists have been razed by the security forces in Jammu and Kashmir in the aftermath of the Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 tourists, mostly Hindus, in the popular tourist spot on April 22, media reports said.

The houses of three terrorists- Ahsan Sheikh, Shahid Ahmad Kuttay and Zahid Ahmad- from Pulwama, Shopian and Kulgam respectively have been brought down.

While Ahsan was one of the three Lashkar Overground Workers and provided logistical support to the Pakistani militants in the Pahalgam attack, Kuttay and Ahmad have been involved in anti-national activities over the last 3-4 years, Times Now reported.

In total, five terrorists' houses have been razed by the security forces since the Islamist attack which took place at Baisaran Valley in Pahalgam.

The houses of two local terrorists, who were involved in the Pahalgam terror attack, were demolished in separate blasts in Jammu and Kashmir on Thursday night.

The houses of LeT terrorists- Asif Sheikh in Tral, Pulwama district, and Adil Thoker in Bijbehara, Anantnag district, were razed to the ground apparently using explosives, several media outlets reported in Srinagar.

As per intelligence sources, Thokar, an Anantnag native who had travelled to Pakistan in 2018 via the Attari-Wagah border, served as a guide and logistics coordinator for Pakistani terrorists who were involved in the Pahalgam terror attack.

Sheikh, who is a resident of Pulwama, is also suspected to be involved with the Islamist terror attack.

Meanwhile, the Anantnag Police has announced a reward of Rs. 20 lakh for any input leading to the arrest of three LeT terrorists including Thokar, who are suspected to be orchestrating the terror attack in the Baisaran Valley on April 22.

The terror attack, which has drawn widespread condemnation from the world leaders, has led India and its arch-rival Pakistan to a fresh confrontation, a major one since the Pulwama terror attack which was backed by Pakistan-based militant group, Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) in 2019.
