Security Forces (SFs) rescued four teenagers while they were on their way to allegedly join Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) ranks in Kishtwar District on May 12, reports Times of India. Superintendent of Police (Kishtwar) Shaheen Mughal said that the four, all 15, were handed over to their parents but would be kept under surveillance. "We're investigating the incident and looking out for the people who motivated them to join the terrorist ranks," he said. He said this was first such incident in 2010 and that the Police were keeping a vigil on the elements luring gullible teenagers. "They are on the run and have started luring the gullible youth especially teenagers to their ranks as a desperate measure to meet the shortage of ranks," a defence spokesperson said. Sources said that the four had left their homes in the morning to join the LeT but local residents informed the SFs after noticing their suspicious behaviour.

The trend of women’s recruitment into militant cadre of Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) and Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) has been checked to quite an extent due to mobilization of elderly people, former Panchayat (village level local self Government institution) members and families of the women by Police and Intelligence agencies in Doda District. ‘‘The trend (of women joining militancy or lending support to the ultras in different forms) has been checked. It has been rather reverse. Police strategy to tactically wean away the women from the ranks of militants has paid off’’, Inspector General of Police (IGP) Jammu Ashok Gupta told Daily Excelsior after a two days visit to Doda District where he reviewed law and order situation of Doda, Kishtwar and Ramban Districts in a joint meeting. At least half a dozen women have shun the cadre of militants and silently stopped working for them on the intervention of some influential villagers, who have considerable say in their areas. The women were working for them by arranging food and shelter or even transporting their weapons in Doda District. Police have decided not to book the women as they have voluntarily given up the path of militancy. Sources, meanwhile, said only those girls, who have married the militants, have refused to join the national mainstream and continued to stay with the commanders of LeT and HM in their hide-outs located in mountainous areas. Family members of these girls, all of whom have been identified, were reported to have done their lot along with elderly villagers of the area to win back the women but couldn’t succeed. Sources admitted that prospectus of return of the women, who have married the ‘commanders’ after joining the militancy, were bleak. Accordingly, police have declared these women as ‘B’ category militants for their active participation in militancy.

Security Forces (SFs) in Jammu and Kashmir are fighting a "dozen-odd Hindu militants", according to a document prepared by Police, reports Telegraph. The document says four "Hindu militants" were among those killed in encounters with the SFs over the years, while one had surrendered and another was arrested. "Some of the (Hindu) militants are listed in the ‘A’ (the most dreaded) category and all are from various Districts of the Jammu region. The first time any Hindu was known to have joined a militant group was in the early 1990s," an unnamed Police officer said. The dozen-odd surviving Hindu militants are with the Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM), Al Badr, Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) and the Harkat-ul-Ansar (HuA), the officer said, adding they are active in the Jammu Districts of Rajouri, Kishtwar, Doda and Reasi. The police document claims that the "Hindu militants" operate with code names. Sham Lal, for instance, became Shamsuddin and he is with Al Badr. Krishan Lal is with the Lashkar. Kripal Singh is also with Al Badr. The Police said one of the longest-serving militants was a Hindu, Bipin Kumar of the HuA. Bipin, killed by the forces in 2008, had been active since 1996. Kuldeep Kumar alias Qamrain of HM died at Kulhind in Doda two years ago [2008] after being active for seven years. Uttam Kumar alias Saif-ullah of the HM died in an encounter in August 2005. Bittu Kumar, who was also with HM, is also suspected to have been killed. The only "Hindu militant" to surrender is Sunil Kumar. He has been absorbed into the paramilitary forces.
