Militant takes wrong route to amnesty, sent back to ***
JAMMU: A former militant who had sought to surrender to return to J&K from across the Line of Control in Poonch district has been sent back as he chose a route not covered under the state government's amnesty policy for insurgents who have abjured violence.
Sources said the Army sent back Mohammad Javed on Tuesday from Digwar. His Pakistani wife and three children were accompanying him. Reports said the family was sent back after the Army quizzed Javed and his wife, Tabassum, who is from Sialkot in Pakistan.
Poonch SSP Shamsheer Hussain said Javed was a top LeT militant when he crossed over to *** in 2001 for arms training. "Javed became disenchanted with militancy and settled at Mang Bajri Muhajir camp in ***, where a number of former militants are putting up with their families."
Many former militants have returned since the state government announced the amnesty. Chakan-Da-Bagh, Uri in J&K, Wagah in Punjab and New Delhi's IGI airport have been designated as the entry points under the policy.
