Meanwhile, a residential house has been attached in north Kashmir's Bandipora "for wilfully sheltering and harbouring militants".
The police attached the residential house of Bashir Ahmad Mir of Wanpora Gurez, at present living at Watrina, after obtaining legal sanction from the competent authorities.
The house was linked to a case in which two hardcore militants were neutralised on 2021.
“The investigation proved beyond doubt that the house was used for the purpose of militancy, sheltering, harbouring militants and such act was voluntarily and knowingly given by the member of the family. Many attacks on civilians and protected persons were carried, conspired and planned by militants while using this house as a hideout,” it reads.
