At least two suspected Lashkar-e-Taiba militants were killed in the encounter at Karan Nagar in Srinagar that lasted for more than 30 hours.
The encounter between militants and security forces had begun on Monday, February 12, after the ultras hiding inside a building tried to attack a CRPF camp. Zubairr from the 49th Battalion CRPF, was part of the operation that successfully carried out by forces against the militants.
“The reason for the grant of Commendation Disc and Certificate – For displaying thorough professionalism and unparalleled dedication, devotion and valour in eliminating the terrorists during the Karan Nagar encounter dated 12/2/2018,” reads the Commendation Disc & Certificate singed by CRPF director general Rajeev Rai Bhatnagar.
Zubair, who joined the CRPF in 2013, was initially posted in Hyderabad and later served in Latur in Maharashtra. He has been serving in Srinagar as a soldier for the past two and a half years. After his primary education in Haleneranky Government Higher Primary School, Zuber did his high school and PU education from Sri Ramakunjeshwara PU College near Uppinangady. Later, he did his BBM from St Philomena’s College in Puttur.
"In my childhood I wanted to become a police officer, but I was not selected in my two attempts. However, I cleared army selection in the first attempt itself. It is my fortune to serve the Indian army," said Zubair, who got married a few months ago. He is expected to visit his hometown next month.
The kidnapped schoolboy was rescued by the police and reunited with his parents. Son of a gift shop owner from Basavanagudi area in Bengaluru, Chirag has reportedly told police that decided to make some quick money to spend on cricket betting and gambling after learning kidnap tricks from the ‘Crime Patrol’. According to police, Chirag reached a private school around 3pm on Tuesday on a Bounce rental bike and zeroed in on a fourth standard student who was walking out of school. He told the boy he was his father's friend and that he required help to search for a relative who had gone missing. The boy believed Chirag and rode pillion on the bike. Chirag then engaged the boy in conversation and learnt about his father's business and got his mobile phone number. He then made a call to the boy's father, demanded Rs 5 lakh and warned him against approaching cops. However, the boy's father alerted Cottonpet police and special teams were formed to crack the case. While Cottonpet inspector Venkatesh TC's squad verified CCTV footage in and around the school, Chamarajpet inspector BG Kumaraswamy's team started tracking the suspect's mobile phone movements. An hour later, the suspect's location was traced to a hotel on the Lavelle Road-St Mark's Road stretch. Police rushed there, rescued the boy and arrested Chirag.
