In a major breakthrough in Jammu and Kashmir militancy conspiracy case, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) today arrested two persons, involved with Kashmiri militancy groups, from Srinagar.
Arrested have been identified as Mushaib Fayaz Baba alias Shoaib (20) and Hilal Yaqoob Deva alias Sethi Soab (35). They belonged to the Shopian district of Jammu and Kashmir and were working for Pakistan-based Commanders and handlers of proscribed militant organizations, such as Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and its shadow outfit The Resistance Front (TRF), among others.
NIA investigations have revealed that the two accused arrested today were in continuous contact with Pakistan-based Commanders and active members of various militant outfits through social media applications.
They were working as OGWs of the militants, and had been actively involved in transporting weapons and funds from one place to another, on the directions of Pak-based Commanders and handlers, as part of a bigger conspiracy.
