New Delhi: The National Investigation Agency (NIA) on Friday attached immovable properties of a Hizbul Mujahideen (HM) terror operative involved in supplying arms and ammunition to active members of the banned outfit for promoting terrorist activities in Kashmir.
On the orders of the NIA special court in Jammu, the agency attached immovable properties of Tariq Ahmad Mir, a chargesheeted accused who was arrested in April in a terror-related case.
The attached properties included a concrete, single-storey residential building built on land measuring 780 square feet and a piece of land measuring eight marlas at Maldera village in Jammu and Kashmir’s Shopian district in the form of an orchard, a statement issued by the probe agency said.
Additionally, a piece of land measuring eight marlas, categorised as Abi-Soum and located under Survey No. 74 Min in the same village, has also been attached. This land was maintained as an orchard.
Tariq Ahmad Mir, known to be an associate of HM terrorist Syed Naveed Mushtaq, was chargesheeted in October 2024 under various sections of the Indian Penal Code, the Arms Act, and the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act.
The NIA stated the attachment was part of its “ongoing action against terror networks operating in Kashmir with the aim of disrupting India’s peace, stability, and harmony.”
