Jehad is a part of the curriculum
of madrassas in Pakistan and young minds are indoctrinated to sacrifice
themselves for what they call to save Islam.
These sensational disclosures have
been made by some of arrested terrorists during the interrogation.
The young minds are easily vulnerable
to such teachings. This has been once again established with the arrest
of Pakistani youth Mohd. Abdullah alias Abu Talah of district Multan in
Pakistan.
Both the youths including Abu Talaha
and Mohd. Adnan who committed massacre in Rajiv Nagar-Qasim Nagar on the
evening of July 13, were hardly 18 to 20 years of age. Mohd. Adnan was
killed in encounter in Raika Forest on Friday whereas his colleague Mohd
Abdullah alias Abu Talah was apprehended during early hours of Saturday
from the same forest area near Rajivnagar.
The arrested Abu Talah is hardly
of 18 years, has made quite important disclosures about their motivation
in joining the jehad (holy war).
On the basis of interrogation of
Abu Talah the police have picked up some others including a local from
the Bathindi-Raika area.
The police agencies are keeping
it a closely-guarded secret about the outcome of the interrogation made
so far but the reliable sources informed that deceased Adnan and arrested
Abu Talah had infilterated to this side of the Line of Control alongwith
in Poonch area via Tatapani Sector of Pak-occupied Kashmir. They were launched
by the Pak-army from their Muslim post and passed about two months in Poonch
area from where he alongwith Adnan were handipicked by their Lashkar-e-
Toiba Commander (Amir) Abu Umar for causing large scale killings of Hindus
in Jammu so as to create communal disturbances in India.
The police agencies are engaged
to trace out their places of shelter and the local contacts as without
local involvement the outsiders cannot commit such acts of brutalities.
The arrest of Abu Talah and eliminating
of his colleague Abu Adnan from Raika-Bathindi area has also given credence
to the reports that several foreigners including Pakistanis and others
have infiltrated in Jammu City and its outskirts and they have created
their hide-outs to act as ISI modules.
Some weeks ago that from this area
of Bathindi- Sunjwan another Pakistani youth named Mohd. Arshad was arrested
alongwith some locals. This terrorist was also linked with Lashkar-e-Toiba
and he had even secured a State Subject Certificate, got identity card
and also acquired some land for construction of a house.
About a month back another Pakistani
named Zulfikar Ali of Gujranwallah Pakistan was arrested from the heart
of this city from Mohalla Ustad where he had purchased a house of the Evacuees
Department and was also having a luxury car-versa-valuing over Rs. 20 lakhs.
The interrogation of all these arrested
Pakisani militants have well estbalished that these are some centre of
the ISI in Poonch area from where the infiltrators are being deployed for
actions in Jammu City as also elsewhere.
