Pakistan on Monday accepted the body of Lashkar-e-Taiba terror operative Tabarak Hussain, via Chakan Da Bagh on the Line of Control in Poonch district.
“Officials of the Indian Army and civil administration took the body of slain terrorist in an ambulance to Chakan Da Bagh where it was handed over to Pakistani army officials,” said a senior official.
Tabarak Hussain, son of Mistri Malik of Sabzkote in PoK was captured in an injured condition on August 21 in Jhanger area of Nowshera sector in Rajouri by the army.
Tabarak was arrested when he was reportedly infiltrating along with a fidayeen terror group to attack Indian army posts on the LoC.
However, Indian army troops noticed the movement and fired upon the intruding terror group in which Tabarak was injured while other infiltrators escaped to PoK.
Indian Army soldiers had donated three bottles of blood for treating Tabarak at a garrison hospital in Rajouri.
He remained under treatment for two weeks before he died of cardiac arrest on Sunday evening.
The post-mortem was conducted at a Surankote hospital.
“On Monday, we also handed over all the documents including post-mortem reports and evidences of his involvement in the infiltration attempt at Jhanger to Pakistani officials,” said the officials.
