Srinagar: The National Investigation Agency (NIA) Saturday attached the property of Hizbul Mujahideen terrorist who was shot dead in Pakistan about two weeks ago.
Officials said that the NIA sleuths assisted by local authorities attached the immovable property of Bashir Ahmed Peer alias Imtiyaz Alam of Babapora, Kralpora Kupwara.
The NIA said Peer was declared a “designated individual terrorist” by the Union Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) in October last year.
The MHA notification had said that Peer played a role in “terror activities” and was providing logistics to the banned outfit Hizb for infiltration in Kupwara.
The NIA attached the agricultural land measuring 1 kanal 13 marlas situated at Batapora that belonged to Peer.
A notice of attachment of the attached property was also put up.
This is the third property that has been attached within three days in Kashmir by the NIA.
On Thursday, the NIA attached the house of Pakistan-based Al-Umar chief Mushtaq Zargar alias Latram released in Kandahar hijacking and the next day an immovable property of Basit Ahmad Reshi of the ‘The Resistance Front’ was attached.
