The National Investigation Agency has attached immovable property of a key terror accused involved in the killing of two non-locals in Kashmir this year, according to an official statement issued on Thursday.
It said that the accused Adil Manzoor Langu is associated with ‘The Resistance Front (TRF), a branch of Pakistan-based terrorist organization Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT).
This attachment is part of the investigation into the case related to a conspiracy hatched by Langu along with two others, identified as Ahran Rasool Dar and Dawood.
“The conspiracy, led by their TRF/LeT handlers based in Pakistan, was aimed at killing innocent people with the aim of spreading terror and inciting violence in India,” the statement said.
It said the investigation following the murder of two non-locals on February 7 led to the arrest of Langu, Dar and Dawood, while Pakistan-based mastermind Jahangir is still at large.
The statement said the weapon used in committing the crime, along with ammunition, was recovered “from a 10 marla property” which was transferred to Langu’s father and some others by its original owner .
It said that the property located in Jaldagar, Srinagar was attached on Wednesday under Section 25 of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, 1967.
The investigating agency said Langu, who was arrested on February 12, was chargesheeted along with other accused in August and is currently lodged in Srinagar’s Central Jail.
“The assets of Adil Manzoor Langu have been attached in the case related to the brutal murder of two non-locals in Shala Kadal, Srinagar in February this year,” it said.
As part of its efforts to dismantle the Kashmir terror network, the NIA on Wednesday attached immovable property of a key terror accused linked to The Resistance Front (TRF), the Lashkar-e-Taiba wing, the statement said.
