Days after the Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 people, the houses of five terrorists, including a Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) commander, have been destroyed across Jammu and Kashmir on Friday night. According to officials, the latest actions were taken in Shopian, Kulgam, and Pulwama districts as the security forces have intensified the crackdown on LeT operatives and suspects linked to the deadly attack.In Shopian’s Chotipora village, the house of LeT commander Shahid Ahmed Kutte was razed and reduced to rubble. Kutte has been active in terror-related activities for the past three to four years and is accused of playing a major role in coordinating anti-national operations, officials said.
Another house of an active terrorist, Zahid Ahmed, was demolished in Kulgam’s Matalam area.
While, in Pulwama’s Murran area, the house of a terrorist, Ahsan Ul Haq, was razed to the ground with an explosion. Ahsan, who underwent terror training in Pakistan in 2018, had recently re-entered the Valley, raising concerns among intelligence agencies.
