More than two decades after the Kandahar plane hijacking, the family of victim Rupin Katyal has finally got justice. It is being told that Zahoor Mistry alias Zahid Akhund, the killer of hijacker and flight passenger Rupin Katyal, was shot dead on 1 March by unidentified gunmen in Karachi, Pakistan. According to media reports, on March 1, two bike-borne assailants entered the house under target killing and shot and killed Zahoor Mistry. Zahoor Mistry is a terrorist of Jaish and was living as a businessman in Karachi by hiding his identity. The footage of both the attackers has been captured in CCTV but they have not been identified.

Masood Azhar, Omar Saeed Sheikh, both then affiliated with the Harkat-ul-Ansar group, and Mushtaq Ahmed Zargar, a Kashmiri terrorist, were released by the Indian government on December 31, 1999, under the watch of the then Taliban militant regime in Kandahar. After being released, Azhar met the then Taliban chief Mullah Omar and then went to Pakistan via the Spin Boldak crossing in Quetta.
