The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has filed a supplementary chargesheet against two Hizbul Mujahideen overground workers in a case related to a criminal conspiracy to carry out terror attacks in Uttar Pradesh and other parts of the country.
Officials said the chargesheet had been filed in a special Lucknow court against Nisar Ahmad Sheikh and Nishad Ahmad Butt, both residents of Kishtwar district of J&K. The NIA said Hizb terrorist Osama Bin Javed was assisted by the two accused. Javed was later killed in an encounter. “While Sheikh would arrange safe transport, Butt would provide shelter and other logistic support to Javed and other Hizb terrorists. Butt had also constructed a hideout in his own house to provide shelter to terrorists,” said a senior NIA official. — TNS
