The police of the Indian region of Jammu and Kashmir arrested on Wednesday an individual named Hakimdeen suspected of being involved in a recent terror attack, making it the first arrest of the case. The investigation is currently being handled by India’s National Investigation Agency (NIA), with the matter being handed to it by the Ministry of Home Affairs on Monday.
On June 9, a bus containing pilgrims in the Reasi area was attacked, resulting in 9 people killed and 33 injured. The damage was contributed to by the fact that the bus driver had been injured and lost control of the bus, resulting in it falling into a gorge. As reported by Hindustan Times, a joint security force, comprising the police, the Indian Army and the Central Reserve Police Force, was set up for temporary operations in the area.
Security officials have alleged that Pakistan-based Islamist group Lashkar-e-Taiba is involved in the attacks. The incident notably took place during the swearing-in ceremony of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Delhi, raising speculations of the time of attack being chosen deliberately to coincide with the ceremony. However, no proof has emerged to substantiate this.
Reasi has typically not faced the violence occurring in other districts, making the incident unexpected. There have been multiple attacks in the Kashmir region since, including in the areas of Kathua and Doda, leaving security forces on alert, with the Indian government expressing major concern.
