Jammu-Kashmir: A conspiracy hatched in Pakistan to drop magnetic bombs in J&K, this 'group' used to help terrorists

Posted on 13th Jan 2023 by rohit kumar

Terrorist organizations based in Pakistan had maintained a local network of arms and ammunition, including UBGL rounds (under-barrel grenade launchers) and magnetic bombs, for terrorists operating in Jammu and Kashmir. The leader of this group in the Jammu region was Pakistani handler, Sajjad Gul. He used to decide when and where arms and ammunition would be dropped through drones (hexacopters) coming from across the border. If the team successfully captured the drone, the arms and ammunition were then transported to terrorists operating in the Kashmir Valley. The NIA on Thursday filed a charge sheet against six accused in the case before a special court in Jammu.

 

UBGL rounds and magnetic bombs

Let us tell you that last year, weapons, including UBGL rounds and magnetic bombs, were dropped through drones (hexacopters) in the Kathua area of Jammu. This drone came from across the border. However, before this ammunition reached the hands of the terrorists, it was recovered by the police. A case was registered in this regard at Police Station, Rajbagh District Kathua. Since it was a case related to terrorists, the investigation of the case was handed over to the NIA. On July 30, the NIA registered the case again and started the investigation of the case. Sections 120B, 121A, 122 of IPC, Sections 16, 17, 18, 18B, 20, 23, 38, 39, and 40 of UAPA, and Sections 25(1)(a) and 25(1AA) of Arms Act against the accused A case was registered under sections 4 and 5 of the Explosive Substances Act.

 

Pakistani handler Sajjad Gul was the leader of the gang.

The NIA investigation has revealed that the accused, on the instructions of Pakistani handler Sajjad Gul, used to transport such lethal material to the Jammu region. From there it was transported to the terrorists present in the Kashmir Valley. For this, accused Sajjad Lone had formed a team. Gul used to decide when and where the weapons would be dropped from the drone, who would receive them, and who would then fulfill the responsibility of taking them to the target. The NIA started the investigation of this case under the conspiracy to wage war against the Government of India. Magnetic bombs were also among the weapons dropped through drones. When the Amarnath Yatra started last year, the security forces warned about such bombs. The aim of the terrorists or they're over-ground workers was to stick such bombs on the bottom or side of any vehicle. After some time that bomb would explode.
