LeT's New Terror Proxy PeHK Raises Alarm As Security Agencies Close In On Kulgam Attack Suspect

Indian security agencies are intensifying their search for Mohammad Lateef Bhat, a suspected Lashkar-e-Taiba operative behind the recent Kulgam attack. The attack resulted in injuries to three CRPF personnel. A newly formed outfit, Pasdaran-e-Hurriyat Kashmir (PeHK), claimed responsibility for the assault through a social media post.

PeHK's spokesperson, Mohammad Omar Azzam, has been active in recent days, evoking the Hindutva issue and warning of future attacks targeting Hindus and the RSS. This could be a diversionary tactic by Lashkar to deflect attention from Bhat, who remains a key operative for the terrorist organization. Bhat is described as a well-trained and capable individual, capable of carrying out small-scale attacks.

Consequently, security agencies are searching for Bhat in Jammu and Kashmir, while also focusing on his accomplices believed to be hiding in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir.
