Srinagar, Nov 19 (IANS) The body of a local civilian killed in the November 10 terrorist blast near the Red Fort in Delhi reached his native village in Jammu and Kashmir’s Ganderbal district on Wednesday.
Bilal Ahmed Sagoo, a Kashmiri labourer, resident of Baba Nagri Wangat village in Ganderbal district, was killed when a terror conspirator, Dr Umar Nabi, detonated his explosives-laden i20 car near the Red Fort in Delhi, killing 13 civilians and injuring several others.
Bilal Ahmed had moved to Delhi to work as a laborer to support his poor family in Wangat village, a remote Baba Nagari in the Sagoo Valley.
Kangan MLA Mian Mehar Ali was among those who received the body at Wangat village and attended the last rites of the unfortunate victim.
Speaking to the media at Baba Nagari Wangat, Mian Mehar Ali said that the poor villager was working as a laborer in Delhi to support his family.
“He was a poor man, and we have supported his family in the past and will continue to support them in the coming days too. Chief Minister Omar Abdullah Sahab has already requested the Central Government to compensate the poor Kashmiri’s family. Omar Sahab has already said that every Kashmiri should not be viewed with suspicion, and the death of Bilal Ahmed Sagoo proves that Kashmiris are victims, not beneficiaries of terrorist acts,” Mian Mehar. Ali said.
The busting of a white-collar terrorist module in the Faridabad region by Jammu and Kashmir Police has exposed a deep-rooted conspiracy hatched by some Kashmiri doctors planning to carry out large-scale terrorist blasts in different parts of the country.
Continuing the investigation into the terror conspiracy, the Counter-Intelligence Wing Jammu (CIJ) of Jammu and Kashmir Police conducted a raid inside the high security Kot Bhalwal Jail in Jammu district. Officials said the CIJ raid was being conducted inside the Kot Bhalwal Central Jail, where some hardcore Pakistani and local terrorists and notorious criminals are lodged.
“The raids are part of an operation to expose the terror network allegedly being run from inside the prison,” officials said.
The raid on Kot Bhalwal jail comes in the backdrop of the recent revelations of a white-collar terror network run by a group of doctors and a major crackdown following a car blast in Delhi’s Red Fort area.
On Tuesday, the Kashmir wing of the Counter-Intelligence (CIK) detained Farooq Umar, a local doctor, and his wife Shahzada of Budgam village in Kulgam district for questioning in connection with the Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) terrorist organization and women’s terrorist organization Dukhtaran-e-Millat.
It has been alleged that the detained doctor and especially his wife, Shahzada, were working to revive the Mahila terror organisation, which had become almost defunct after the arrest of its chief Asiya Andrabi in 2018.
The doctor and his wife were picked up from Shirin Bagh area of Srinagar city. The doctor, Umar Farooq, works as a cardiologist at the Government Super Specialty Hospital in Shirin Bagh.
