Terrorist who did Pahgam attack On 22 April, 26 people died as a result, two days before the incident, the Basaron was present in the Valley, sources said. The disclosure was done during interrogation of one arrested in the ground workers (OGWS) associated with the attack.
According to senior officials, for investigation, terrorists reached Pahalgam On 15 April and at least four places including the picturesque Besaran Valley, reconnaissance was held. The other three potential targets were Aru Valley, Local Manores Park and Bitab Valley and were also under surveillance by terrorists. Sources say that the increased security system in these areas stopped the terrorists from carrying out the attack there.
The National Investigation Agency (NIA), which is leading the investigation, has identified about 20 OGWS, believed to have supported foreign terrorists. Many of them have been arrested, and others are under active surveillance.
According to intelligence sources, at least four OGWs played an important role in assisting terrorists with reconnaissance and logistic support. Evidence has also been revealed about the use of three satellite phones in the region during the pre-halt phase. The signs of two of these devices have been successfully detected.
NIA and intelligence agencies have so far questioned more than 2,500 persons regarding the attack. So far, 186 people remain in custody for further inquiries, reflecting the broader nature of the investigation.
After the attack, coordinated raids were launched in Jammu and Kashmir. Members of restricted organizations and residences associated with sympathetic residences such as various Hurriyat conference factions and Jamaat-e-Islami were discovered at several places, including Kupwara, Handa, Anantnag, Troll, Pulwama, Sopore, Baramalla and Bandipora.
According to NIA sources, despite the status of these groups, they facilitated the development of a support network, which allowed Pakistani terrorists to plan and carry out the Pahgam massacre.
The call records of persons affiliated to these organizations are now being investigated. Investigators have come into communication relations between the members of these groups and the OGW in the Pahgam attack.
