NIA to File Chargesheet in Pulwama Attack Case

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) which has been investigating the Pulwama Suicide attack case of February 2019 will file its chargesheet in a Jammu court on Tuesday.

A Report said that the key accused in the case who are a part of  Jaish-e-Mohammad have been named in the chargesheet.

The NIA has said that Pakistan used Adil Ahmad Dar, a local resident who rammed an explosive-laden car into a CRPF convoy in Pulwama, as a suicide bomber to project the attack as a result of a home-grown militancy against “India’s occupation of Kashmir”.

JeM founder Maulana Masood Azhar and his younger brother, Mufti Abdul Rauf Asghar, have been named as primary accused in the charge sheet, sources said.

Seven alleged JeM operatives have been arrested from Kashmir since February which include Mohammad Abbas Rather, Tariq Ahmad Shah, Mohammad Iqbal Rather, Shakir Bashir Magrey, Waiz-ul-Islam, Insha Jan, and Bilal Ahmed Kuchey.
