“A few days back, video clips of an unidentified terrorist wearing a battle pouch with a grenade were in circulation on social media. “These video clips were clicked in Tral area by local media persons during the funeral of self-styled terrorist commander Sabzar Bhat,” a police spokesperson said. Danish was also found to have been involved in stone-pelting incidents in Handwara during the 2016 turmoil. “He was picked up by the police but was let off after counselling in view of his career,” the spokesperson said. After Danish’s involvement in militancy was established, security forces got in touch with his parents and impressed upon them the need to counsel their son to surrender. “His parents were convinced that if he surrenders, he would be dealt with fairly under the law. Efforts made by security forces yielded results and Danish surrendered before police and 21 Rashtriya Rifles of the army in Handwara,” he said. During questioning, Danish revealed that he had been in touch with militants in south Kashmir on social media and was persuaded to join them. “He was tasked by Hizbul Mujahideen commanders to activate some local youth in north Kashmir and make the region as militancy infested as the southern part of Kashmir. “However, after spending few days with the terrorists in south Kashmir, he realised the futility of joining militant ranks,” the spokesperson said. A case under relevant sections of law has been registered against Danish, he said. The case is being considered under the Jammu and Kashmir Surrendered Militants Rehabilitation Policy.
