Jammu and Kashmir’s Poonch police struck a major blow to Pakistan-sponsored terrorism by attaching the property of a notorious terror handler operating from across the border. The bold action highlights the effectiveness of intelligence-driven counter-terrorism efforts.

Sources indicate the handler, long on the radar of Indian agencies, has masterminded several deadly strikes in the Poonch sector. The attached property, believed to be a prime real estate holding, was traced through advanced surveillance and human intelligence. This financial hit is designed to cripple his ability to fund and direct operations.

The district, vulnerable due to its proximity to the LoC, has seen repeated terror bids thwarted recently. Police invoked anti-terror laws to legally seize the assets, with judicial oversight ensuring compliance. This move disrupts not just the individual but the entire syndicate he represents.

Amid ongoing operations, forces have ramped up patrols and electronic monitoring. The community, weary of violence, welcomes the development as a step toward normalcy. Further probes may uncover links to larger networks, potentially leading to more attachments.

Experts view this as a psychological victory, eroding the terror ecosystem’s support base in Pakistan. With elections approaching in the region, such actions reinforce security commitments. Poonch police remain committed to rooting out terror, one asset at a time.
