In a separate incident on Tuesday night, police released a sketch of a terrorist responsible for an attack on a passenger bus in Reasi district. A reward of ₹20 lakh has been announced for information leading to his arrest.
This bus, which was transporting pilgrims from Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, and Delhi, was ambushed while travelling from Shiv Khori temple to the Mata Vaishno Devi shrine in Katra. The attack caused the bus to veer off the road and plunge into a deep gorge, resulting in nine fatalities and injuries to 41 others.
The Jammu and Kashmir Police have appealed to the public for assistance in locating these terrorists, urging anyone with relevant information to come forward. Authorities remain vigilant and are intensifying their efforts to ensure the safety and security of the region, especially in light of these recent violent incidents.
