Indian police offer huge reward for finding terrorists in Kashmir

The police of the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir have announced a large reward for those who provide information about the criminals who carried out a terrorist attack on tourists.

According to official information, the identity of the person who provides reliable data about the attackers will be kept strictly confidential, and they will be given a cash reward of 200,000 rupees (approximately 2,300 USD). Information about the wanted terrorists has been posted on the police’s official social media accounts.

It has been reported that on April 22, the criminals carried out an armed attack near the city of Pahalgam — one of the country’s most famous tourist destinations. As a result of this horrific incident, 26 civilians were killed, and 17 others sustained injuries of varying degrees.

According to Indian security forces, six armed militants were involved in this dreadful terrorist act. They approached a trail in the Baisaran valley where tourists were walking and opened fire without any warning. A militant group called "Kashmir Resistance" claimed responsibility for the terrorist act.

It should be noted that earlier, the President of Uzbekistan, Shavkat Mirziyoyev, extended condolences to Indian President Droupadi Murmu and Prime Minister Narendra Modi in connection with the deaths and serious injuries caused by the attack.

Currently, the search for the terrorists is actively ongoing, and the security forces are asking the public for any possible assistance. The Indian government stated its firm intention to find and punish the perpetrators as soon as possible. Read 'Zamin' on Telegram!
