The government of Jammu and Kashmir is going fierce in its crackdown on “terror elements embedded in the system”. Under the mission to eliminate impurities from the system, the state has suspended 3 more people from their position. One of them was the Public Relations Officer (PRO) of the University of Kashmir. According to the sources, he was writing narrative-setting pieces in a Kashmiri newspaper for a second pay while also working as a secessionist-terrorist activist for Pakistan’s ISI and terror organizations.
Who else thrown out of office by Jammu and Kashmir government
The Lieutenant General of Jammu and Kashmir also signed the suspension of revenue official Murawath Hussain Mir. He was quoted as a “chief facilitator of extortions by terrorist outfits from the tehsil office staff in Pampore and Tral in the nineties and a key overground worker for Hizbul Mujahideen and JKLF”. The third person, who got terminated was J&K Police constable Arshid Ahmad Thoker, “a high-grade narco-terrorist who misused his uniform to facilitate Jaish e Muhammed operatives in Budgam and Pulwama.”
Officers with criminal records
Murawath was detained in Srinagar in 1995 together with four other terrorists who were planning to blow up an important facility there. But he managed to get out of jail within eight months and rejoin the government.
Arshid was also detained last year after his two assistants reported to authorities that they were on their way to deliver cars for an unspecified terrorist attack that they had purchased with money from Arshid’s drug sales. He is presently incarcerated.
Following an investigation by J&K authorities, it was determined that the three employees were “actively working with Pakistani terror outfits, providing logistics to terrorists, propagating terrorist ideology, raising terror funds, and furthering secessionist agenda.” This led to the most recent dismissals under Article 311(2)(c) of the Constitution. Up to 52 J&K government employees have already been let off as a result of this clause.
The “planted” propagator
In order to support and maintain pro-Pakistan activities on campus, sources claim that Faheem was “planted” at Kashmir University in August 2008 by a terror-separatist kingpin associated with JKDFP founder Shabir Shah. This was done without following the required recruitment process. An investigator stated that additional investigation will be conducted to apprehend this drug lord who “started a legal business with seed money received from Pakistan ISI.”
Faheem published multiple essays in Greater Kashmir and social media posts endorsing pro-Pakistan viewpoints while also encouraging terrorism and secession. He gained the moniker “narrative terrorist” as a result of these, particularly during the unrest between 2008 and 2018. He removed a number of posts after Article 370 was repealed, but they were later recovered and “depict beyond a shadow of a doubt that he is a hardcore Pakistan embedded high-value asset,” according to one officer.
