| Kashmir terror link suspected in Punjab police station attack | | |
Early Times Report
Jammu, Dec 13: Even as the Al Qaeda's offshoot Ghazwat-ul-Hind claimed responsibility for the recent rocket-propelled grenade (RPG) attack at a police station in Punjab's Tarn Taran, the probe agencies are not ruling out Kashmir terror link to the case.
Its pertinent to mention that Pakistani link to the attack has already been established and it’s the neighboring country which has common terror interests in Kashmir and Punjab.
The Ghazwat-ul-Hind terror outfit said that they had fired a rocket from the Amritsar-Bathinda Highway. Earlier last Saturday, Sikhs For Justice (SFJ), a Khalistani militant organisation, claimed responsibility for the attack. But after the Al Qaeda offshoot claiming responsibility, “the Kashmir terror link is prime suspect.”
The link is likely to be probed in the coming days. Sources said the probe agencies are investigating if the “Kashmir terror groups were in touch with the terrorists linked to Khalistani terror ideology” who carried out the attack in the neighboring state. A senior official told the Early Times on the condition of anonymity that it has been observed in the last few months that the terror groups in Kashmir have developed links in Punjab and that it was mainly seen in narco-terror as drugs were found being smuggled between Kashmir and Punjab, subsequently seized.
He added that the terror outfit Ghazwat-Ul-Hind already had its links in Kashmir and that its commanders like Zakir Musa were killed in the valley itself.
“The narco terror link between Kashmir and Punjab was already there and now you have the outfit which has already been active in Kashmir in the past claiming responsibility of the attack in Punjab, so the link is only getting clear,” said the official on the condition of anonymity.
Following the attack in Tarn Taran, NIA officers came to the Sarhali Kalan police station for investigations.
After analysing the situation, Punjab DGP Gaurav Yadav said that an FIR under UAPA has been registered. The Punjab DGP added that there is a clear indication of a strategy of foreign elements to bleed India through thousand cuts. |
