According to reports, after the arrest of the HM confidant, the police achieved a major success. The senior superintendent of police (SSP) Rajouri, Rajesh Yadav told that on Saturday (July 12) night police relieved specific information about the presence of top militant of Hizbul Mujahideen in the area.


Reports said after the information the police launched a search operation in the area. The hiding militant managed to give a slip to the security forces under the cover of darkness, forcing the security forces to lay nakas on all the routes linking Thanamandi with other stations of the district.


On Sunday (July 13) afternoon, Rajouri police succeeded in nabbing the militant, Abdul Rashid Bhat, son of Ahmed Gani Bhat of Doda at Chingus when he was leaving the district in a vehicle. From the vehicle, police recovered one AK 47 rifle, three magazines, 90 rounds of AK and a mobile phone. The arrested militant has been identified as 31-year-old Abdul Rashid, son of Abdul Gani Bhat, a resident of Doda.


The said militant was known as Mansoor ul Haq alias Mazam bhai in the entire HM outfit and his code was MS. He was enjoying second place in the hierarchy of the outfit for being close confidant of united jihad council (UJC) chief Syed Salahuddin. After his arrest, the police took him to a safe house for interrogation. During sustained questioning of the militant it came to fore that he ex filtrated to Pakistan-occupied-Kashmir (PoK) in 1998 when he was studying in 10th class, through Muzaffarabad area and remained there till 2007.


During his period, he not only received training in handling sophisticated weapons but also supervised several training camps. Sources said that during his 10 year stay in Pakistan he was in-charge of three training camps. He also became a close confidant of Syed Salahuddin for being hardcore jihadi and the top hierarchy was always deputing him to the training camps across PoK to preach jihad against India to the recruits of militant outfits.


SSP Yadav said that when Hizbul Mujahideen outfit started receiving setback across Jammu and Kashmir in 2007, he was deputed to strengthen the outfit and lure innocent youth by UJC chief and said that he was sent to Dhaka from Karachi after preparing fake visa and passport before infiltrating into the Indian territory and then travelling to Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) through train. He was the commander so the outfit did not take risk to send him across the Indian side and made his fake travel documents. When he reached Dhaka, a HM guide, Gulam Mohammed helped him cross the border into India from Bangladesh and he reached in Kolkata. Soon after his arrival in Jammu, he went to Pulwama and met Rajouri-Pulwama divisional commander of the outfit, Saqib, who tasked Mansoor-ul-Haq to take control of the outfit in Doda district. Recently, he reached Rajouri and was about to travel to Doda when the police pounced on him. Other Articles by Govind Chauhan
