The arrest of Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) commander Qari Naveed, alias Fahadullah, a Pakistani national, last week and subsequent arrests of his accomplices has helped the police to create a map of over a dozen attacks carried out in north Kashmir in recent months.
A senior police officer said the arrests had helped solve a dozen grenade attacks and the killing of a youth inside a mosque in March and provided “crucial clues” regarding the killing of sarpanch Ghulam Mohammad Yatoo of Palhalan and former counter-insurgent Bashir Ahmad Ganaie of Kunzer in Tangmarg. All these attacks took place in various parts of north Kashmir’s Baramulla district.
