In a decisive and resolute action against terror networks operating from across the border, the Jammu & Kashmir Police have attached an immovable property belonging to Pakistan-based terror handler and launch commander of a banned terrorist outfit, Rafiq Nai @ Sultan, under the provisions of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA).
The attachment by the Poonch Police has been effected in connection with an FIR registered at Police Station Gursai in District Poonch. The attached property comprises agricultural land, situated in Village Nar, Nakka Majhari area of Tehsil Mendhar, District Poonch.
Rafiq Nai @ Sultan is presently operating as a Pakistan-based handler and launch commander of the banned terrorist outfits Tahreek-ul-Mujahideen and Jammu Kashmir Ghaznavi Force, police said.
Rafiq Nai is actively involved in the supervision of narcotics and weapons smuggling, facilitation of infiltration of trained terrorists, and revival of terrorist activities in the Poonch-Rajouri sector. He has been declared a “Designated Individual Terrorist” and is wanted in multiple serious terror and criminal cases.
The attachment was executed by a joint team of Police Station Mendhar and the Revenue Department, after following all due legal procedures, verification, documentation, and obtaining approval from the competent authority.
