The security forces in J&K averted a major incident of a 2019 Pulwama-like vehicle-borne attack on Thursday morning when they chased and seized a car laden with 40-45 kg of explosives in the district.
Naikoo became the de facto chief of the terror group after the death of the terror group’s Kashmir commander Burhan Wani, who was killed in July 2016.
The encounter took place at Goripora area of Awantipora in Pulwama district earlier in the morning.
The encounter broke out last night in Panjran village of the district's Lassirpora area, the public relations officer (Defence) said. The security forces have seized three AK series rifles from the site of the gunfight.
Rashtriya Rifles, Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) and the special operations group (SOG) of state police surrounded the village late on Thursday after receiving information about the hiding militants.
