High alert across Jammu after Hizb militant goes missing from Kulgam
A high alert has been issued in Jammu and Kashmir after Yasir Bhat, a Hizbul Mujahideen terrorist out on bail, went missing from his home in South Kashmir’s Kulgam district.
The terrorist had carried out a grenade attack at Jammu Bus Stand in March 2019, resulting in the deaths of two civilians and injuries to 32 others.
Police officials have distributed posters of Yasir Bhat across Jammu in an effort to locate him. The 2019 grenade attack occurred on a Thursday afternoon in March 2019, when a powerful blast rocked the crowded general bus stand in Jammu. The attack killed Mohammad Riyaz, a 32-year-old resident of Mattan village in Anantnag district, and Mohammad Sharik, a teenager from Uttarakhand. Riyaz succumbed to his injuries while undergoing treatment at the Government Medical College (GMC) hospital, raising the death toll to two.
Within hours of the grenade attack, police arrested Yasir Javed Bhat, who was tasked by the terror outfit Hizbul Mujahideen to carry out the attack. Inspector General of Police, Jammu, M. K. Sinha, stated that Bhat, a resident of Khanpora-Dassein village in Kulgam, was directed by Hizbul Mujahideen district commander Farooq Ahmad Bhat, also known as “Umar,” to execute the attack. Bhat had arrived in Jammu with the grenade on the morning of the attack after leaving Kulgam the previous night. He was attempting to flee when he was apprehended by alert policemen at Nagrota on the outskirts of the city.
Bhat was granted bail due to his juvenile status at the time of the attack. His recent disappearance has led to the issuance of a high alert, with security forces intensifying their efforts to locate him and prevent any potential threats
