In a major crackdown on terrorist networks operating across Jammu and Kashmir, the Reasi District Police has attached property belonging to a Pakistan-based terror operative, Mohd Sharif Mirasi, originally a resident of village Sildhar in Mahore tehsil of the district.
Sharif Mirasi had joined terrorist ranks in 2000 and later crossed over to Pakistan in 2010 for arms procurement and terror training with the intent to wage war against India. Initially affiliated with Hizbul Mujahideen, he subsequently became associated with the proscribed terrorist organisation Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), continuing to facilitate terrorism in the UT from across the border.
