Three terror associates with LeT links held for Srinagar grenade attack
Jammu and Kashmir Police on Friday arrested three terror associates in the city in connection with the recent grenade attack. Sharing information, inspector general of police VK Birdi said the trio had lobbed the grenade onto the market, adding, “Srinagar police cracked the case in very less time and collected a lot of clues and witnesses and arrested the terrorists and their associates in the case.” The November 3 grenade attack on the crowded Sunday Market in Srinagar had left 12 civilians injured. “Srinagar Police conducted exhaustive investigation which finally led to the arrest of three terrorist associates identified as Usama Yaseen Sheikh son of Mohammad Yaseen Sheikh, Umar Fayaz Sheikh son of Fayaz Ahmad Sheikh, both residents of Ikhrajpora, Srinagar and Afnan Mansoor Naik son of Manzoor Ahmad Naik resident of Watoo, currently residing in Ikhrajpora, Srinagar,” the spokesperson added. Police said Usama Sheikh had been previously arrested in 2018 in connection with a case registered at Nowhatta and had been lodged at Central Jail, Srinagar, for several months before being released on bail.
