The Intelligence Agencies investigating the target killings have paced up the hunt for a local goon named Mehran Ali. Intelligence Agencies believed that Mehran was behind all these target killings in the valley.
According to the sources, for the past many months, Mehran has been active in terrorist activities. Mehran is a resident of Jamalatta, Srinagar, and he was also associated with the Gujjar gang in the valley.
There is no track record of Mehran, but after a thorough investigation by the Intelligence Agencies, the agencies have issued his name. TRF’s Sheikh Abbas, who was killed in August, is believed to be the person who brought Mehran into militancy.
Meanwhile, security forces have raided several places in the UT and have detained several people.
