Pak army, ISI training us, says captured militant Srinagar, October 2
According to Lieutenant General SA Hasnain, GoC, Chinar Corps, the arrest of the Pakistani militant has exposed the nexus between the ISI, the Pakistan army and militant organisations imparting training to Pakistani youth to carry out acts of terror in Kashmir. He also highlighted the complicity between the ISI and the Pakistan army in setting up terror infrastructure in Pakistani hinterland and the PoK to spread militancy and disrupt peace and harmony in Kashmir. The defence press release said Nissar Ahmed revealed that he had been recruited and initially trained at the LeT training facility at Manshera and was part of a group of 12 terrorists, who had been trained in use of various kinds of weapons, explosives, navigation and communication equipment by a group of trainers from the Pakistan army and the ISI. His training commander was Abdullah Shaheen.The militant disclosed that after the initial training at Manshera, their group was transported to the LeT training camp at Jamgarh and, thereafter, they were moved to a training camp near Kel Military Garrison opposite the Machhil sector, where they received intensive training in use of weapons and explosives. The militant has confirmed that seven members of the group under Abu Talha were selected for infiltration into Kashmir through the Machhil sector, the defence spokesman said. They were provided with arms, ammunition and other communication equipment and were moved forward to a launch pad in the vicinity of a Pakistan army Post, the spokesman added. The number of infiltration attempts from across the LoC along Baramulla-Kupwar-Bandipore has been increased during the recent weeks ahead of winter when the high peak mountain areas remain snowbound, making infiltration difficult for the militants. Last week, five unidentified infiltrators and four security personnel were killed in a five-day encounter, which began last Monday in the Shamsbari range on the LoC in Kupwara district of north Kashmir.
