The lone Fidayeen was shot dead within few minutes of the attack, thus, thwarting the terrorist’s attempt of facilitating escape of the under-trial terrorists, said Deputy Inspector General of Police (DIG Jammu-Kathua range) Farooq Ahmed. He said that the terrorist appeared outside the district jail at around 10.10 AM and started indiscriminate firing on the security picket and a police vehicle in which the 13 detenues, including three Pakistanis and other terrorists, were being taken to the Courts for hearing. Before being killed, the terrorist had injured 12 persons, including three police personnel and two detenues. All were rushed to the Government Medical College Hospital where five of them were declared brought dead. Two of the injured, later, succumbed to injuries. Besides an AK rifle and exhausted magazine, four grenades, four magazines, one pouch and one jacket were recovered from the possession of slain Fidayeen. According to DIG Ahmed, "The terrorist who carried out the attack belonged to the Lashkar-e-Taiba and was identified as Assadullah Mohammad Bilal. His identity was written on the AK-47 rifle he used to carry out the attack." According to sources, Bilal was a resident of Askardu tribal area in Pakistan. The jail, located at Amphalla in Jammu city, houses 500 inmates, about 100 of whom are undertrials suspected to be involved in terrorist activities. According to The Hindu, they include 40 foreigners, including terrorists affiliated to the Al-Jehad arrested in security operations from different parts of the State.
