The slain terrorist is believed to have been involved in the ambush of an IAF convoy in Poonch and an attack on army and civilian workers in 2024.

Meanwhile, massive searches were going on at an altitude of 12,000 to 15,000 feet to track down the footprints of the second terrorist in the Pir Panjal range. According to the officials, the encounter site is nearly six hours from the Doodhpathri area of Budgam and is extremely isolated.
