Unknown men at work again in Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir (PoK) !!

One of the masterminds of the 2019 Pulwama attack, which left over 40 CRPF personnel dead, was killed by unknown gunmen in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (POK). A resident of Pulwama, Hamza Burhan, known as 'Doctor', was designated as a terrorist by the Union Home Ministry in 2022.

Burhan, whose original name is Arjumand Gulzar Dar, sustained multiple bullet injuries after he was attacked in Muzaffarabad by unidentified assailants. For those who have watched Dhurandhar, the moment feels eerily familiar. In fact, in the past couple of years, several designated terrorists have been eliminated in Pakistan and POK.  

WHO IS HAMZA BURHAN?

Born in Kharbatpora in the Ratnipora area of Pulwama, Burhan left for Pakistan in 2017 under the pretext of pursuing higher studies. 

However, he joined the banned terror outfit Al-Badr and soon rose to the rank of commander in the outfit.  

He returned to Kashmir later and was involved in radicalising youth and indoctrinating them. In South Kashmir, Burhan expanded his network from Pulwama to Shopian. In fact, families across Pulwama have recounted how youths who encountered Burhan gradually slipped into militancy.

Burhan has been linked to several terror-related activities in Jammu and Kashmir, including the February 14, 2019, Pulwama attack.

The Pulwama incident was the deadliest attack on security personnel in India, carried out by the Jaish-e-Muhammad (JeM). A JeM terrorist rammed an explosives-laden car into a convoy of the CRPF at Lethpora, killing 40 personnel.
