A significant terrorist attack occurred on the workers of a construction company in Ganderbal, Kashmir on October 20. This resulted in the deaths of 7 individuals. Video of the terrorist attack showed two terrorists wielding guns. The CCTV footage clearly shows the faces of both terrorists. These terrorists are holding an American M4 carbine rifle and an AK-47.
It was also discovered at the site of the terror attack that the terrorists spent 7 minutes in the workers’ camp before escaping following the attack. Authorities stated that the video demonstrates their familiarity with the location.
Seven individuals lost their lives in the terror incident, with six victims hailing from regions outside of Kashmir and one victim being a local physician. They were employed by APCO Infratech, a construction company, to construct the Z-Morh tunnel on the Srinagar-Sonmarg highway.
According to reports, the assault occurred at the camp around 7.25 pm, with some staff members in the dining area and others headed for dinner. The camp is located directly underneath the road that goes to the tunnel, with desolate mountains on one side and the Srinagar-Leh national highway on the other side.
Following the assault, senior police authorities along with officials from the National Investigation Agency and other security agencies arrived at the scene. A source familiar with the situation stated that no CCTV camera was set up at the location where the initial gunshots were fired.
The terrorists’ movement has been captured by CCTV. Both of them are observed entering and shooting. They assaulted the chaos and later emerged to shoot at additional employees.
Reports have also indicated that terrorists have used the same type of rifles in the assaults on security forces in Pir Panjal. Survivors of the assault have alleged that the assailants had concealed their faces. Simultaneously, a high-ranking police official mentioned that it would be too early to discuss the evidence gathered up to this point. This could impact future research. Details will be provided after confirmation.
