Jammu and Kashmir Police on Saturday released sketches of four terrorists who were seen in 'dhoks' (mud-houses) in the higher reaches of Kathua district and announced a cash reward of Rs 20 lakhs for credible information on them.
Kathua district witnessed a deadly ambush by terrorists on an army patrol in remote forest belt of Machedi on July 8, resulting in the deaths of five soldiers including a Junior Commissioned Officer (JCO).
Despite a massive search operation, terrorists affiliated with Kashmir Tigers, a shadow group of Pakistan-based Jaish-e-Mohammad outfit, who have recently infiltrated into the country remain untraced.
In a post on X, police released sketches of four terrorists who were last seen in ‘dhoks' of Malhar, Bani and Seojdhar forests in the upper reaches of the district.
“…A reward of 5 lakhs on each terrorist for an actionable information. Anyone with credible information of terrorists will also be suitably rewarded,” Kathua police said in its post.
