Just in: The National Investigation Agency (NIA) is escorting the captured Pakistani terrorists Mohammed Naved Yakub to Kashmir. The NIA is trying to reconstruct the sequence of events which led to the attack on a BSF platoon in Udhampur and consequently, Naved's capture.


Naved was subjected to a lie detector test on August 17 after he had made 'contradictory and misleading' statements about his Indian contacts and the route taken his group to infiltrate India.

Naved was kept in isolation for some time before being subjected to the polygraph test.


Naved and another terrorist, Noman, had attacked a BSF bus on August 5 at Narsu Nallah in Udhampur district, killing two troopers and injuring 11 others.

While Noman was killed in the gunfight with BSF troopers, Naved managed to escape to Samroli, 15 km from the attack site on the Jammu-Srinagar highway. He later took three people hostage in a house in Chirdi village.

The Lashkar-e-Toiba terrorist was, however, overpowered by his hostages and handed over to local police.
