Lashkar-e-Taiba terrorist behind 3 major attacks on India shot dead in Pakistan

Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) terrorist Razaullah Nizamani, also known as Abu Saiullah, was shot dead by unidentified gunmen in Pakistan’s Sindh province, PTI reported on Sunday citing officials.

Nizamani, who was reportedly under Pakistan government-provided security was attacked near a road crossing in Matli, Sindh, shortly after leaving his residence earlier in the day.

Abu Saiullah was a key operative behind several major terror attacks in India, including the 2001 assault on a CRPF camp in Rampur, the 2005 strike on the Indian Science Congress in Bangalore, and the 2006 attack on the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) headquarters in Nagpur.

His killing comes just days after India’s Operation Sindoor, which led to the elimination of nearly 100 terrorists, including high-value targets such as Yusuf Azhar, Abdul Malik Rauf, and Mudasir Ahmed.

Nizamani, who had been provided security by the Pakistani government, had left his residence at Matli in Sindh this afternoon and he was gunned down by assailants near a crossing, the officials said.

Besides masterminding the attack on the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) headquarters at Nagpur, the Lashkar operative was involved in the Indian Institute of Science attack of 2005 in Bengaluru and the terror strike at a CRPF camp at Rampur in 2001.
