Chocolate Wrappers, Voter IDs, Biometrics: Evidence Confirms Slain Pahalgam Terrorists Were Pak

Security agencies have uncovered evidence that the three foreign terrorists killed in the aftermath of the Pahalgam terror attack were citizens of Pakistan. The agencies have several proofs, including documents issued by the government of Pakistan and biometric data, which confirms their identity.

The men, identified as senior Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) operatives, were neutralised on the outskirts of Srinagar during ‘Operation Mahadev’. Their movement were traced back to the Dachigam-Harwan forest belt, where the militants had lain low following the brutal assault on Baisaran meadow in Pahalgam on April 22, which claimed 26 lives.

Officials told news agency PTI said that the evidence collected by them conclusively established their Pakistani identity. So far the agencies have recovered biometric data from Pakistan’s National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA), laminated voter slips, digital satellite phone data, and GPS logs, from the slain terrorists. The involvement of any local residents among the attackers has been ruled out.
