Srinagar: After finishing the story of Hizbul Mujahideen’s top commander Riyaz Naikoo in the Kashmir Valley, there are now 12 terrorists in the most wanted list of security forces. The list includes Salim of Lashkar-e-Taiba, Dr. Saifalla Mir of Hizbul Mujahideen, Abu Hamza of The Registration Front (TRF), Khalid Ibrahim of Ansar Gajwatul Hind (AGH) and other notorious terrorists who were killed by security forces. It will be a big challenge for there are also many Pakistanis on the list of the most wanted 12 terrorists.

Deputy Commandant Dr. Saifullah is also likely to be killed in an ongoing encounter at Begipora in Avantipora along with Hizb Commander Riaz Naiku. If he survived, he could be the next Hizb commander. With this, he will also be at the top of the most wanted list of security personnel.

Hizb terrorist Dr. Saifullah: Dr. Saifulla of Malangpora, Pulwama is also called Saif Mir. He is also an A-class terrorist.

Lashkar terrorist Salim: Apart from this, the active Lashkar-e-Taiba terrorist in North Kashmir, beyond Salim, is a big challenge for the security forces at this time. Jammu and Kashmir police and army are looking for just one chance to kill him. They have also activated their information system in the valley to get information related to it. But so far, success is not being achieved. Salim, a resident of Bandipore, was associated with the terrorist organization Lashkar two years ago in the year 2018.

Al-Badr terrorist Javed Mattu: After this, the name of the list comes from Al-Badr commander Javed Ahmed Matatu, who is a resident of Sapor. It falls into double A-class terrorists. It has a lot of influence in Sopore and its surroundings.

Pakistani terrorist Ali: Jaish-e-Mohammed terrorist Ali, who has been active in North Kashmir and its adjoining areas for the last four years, is from Pakistan. Although he has not seen anyone for the past few months, he is also involved in the most wanted terrorists.

Come on the list. Security forces say they do not have much information about Abu Hamza of TRF and Khalid Ibrahim of AGH on the list. If Junaid and Saifullah are killed along with Riyaz Naiku, then the list of most wanted terrorists will be reduced by two names, this list will be limited to 10.
