Naved Alias Kasim Alias Usman, the terrorist who was caught alive by security forces on wednesday shortly after he and accomplice Noman alias Momin killed two BSF men and wounded nearly a dozen soldiers by ambushing a convoy on the Jammu-Srinagar national highway in Udhampur,was questioned all night on who his handlers in Pakistan were and on the route he took to cross over to India.
Noman was killed in retaliatory fire by BSF personnel. He was from Bhawalpur in Pakistan.As per media reports,Naved has told interrogators he is from Faislabad in Pakistan. A resident of Ghulam Mustafabad in Faisalabad, the militant believed to be in his early 20s has two brothers and one sister.
Initially, Naved said he was in his early 20s but later changed his age to 16. “He has been changing statements. First he identified himself as Qasim and later as Usman Khan,” an officer said.
In a "confession" caught on camera soon after he was captured, Naved said he started for India 12 days ago.
“I am from Pakistan and my partner was killed in the firing but I escaped. Had I been killed, it would have been Allah’s doing. There is fun in doing this … I came to kill Hindus,” said the suspected Lashkar-e-Taiba operative wearing a dark blue shirt and brown trousers.
As he was brought down from the mountainous village bound by ropes, Naved looked hassled but smiled when he answered questions from journalists.
