In the wee hours, based on specific input about the presence of terrorists in village Gund Jahangir area of Bandipora, a joint cordon and search operation was launched by Police, 13RR and 47Bn CRPF in the said area.

In the ensuing encounter, one terrorist identified as Imtiyaz Ahmad Dar affiliated with proscribed terror outfit LeT (TRF) was killed and his body was retrieved from the site of encounter. It is pertinent to mention that the killed terrorist was the main accused in the killing of a civilian Mohd Shafi alias Sonu at Shahgund.
