25 LeT Cadres Spotted in Mendhar
POONCH; Indian Security agencies have observed movement of 20 to 25 armed fighters across Balnoi and Balakote in Mendhar sector of Poonch district, who were fully geared up to enter on this side of the Line of Control (LoC).
The group reportedly belonged to Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) organization.
Official sources told that movement of the insurgents on Pak Administered Kashmir side of the LoC was being observed for the past three to four days. The insurgents were equipped with heavy weaponry and were reportedly planning to infiltrate into the Indian administered side.
“For the past quite some time, there had been no movement of the insurgents across the LoC in Mendhar sector though a number of insurgents were present in PaK. The insurgents had shifted from the LoC to their camps as they were not finding any opportunity of infiltration into Jammu and Kashmir,” they said, adding it was during the last few days that about 20 to 25 insurgents have again surfaced across the LoC opposite Balnoi and Balakote forward areas of Mendhar sector.
Sources, however, said that forces were already maintaining a high alert along the LoC in view of Parliament elections in the Administered State as there were specific inputs that the insurgents were determined to infiltrate into this side of the LoC to create disturbances ahead of the polls.
