Sopore Superintendent of Police (SP) Altaf Khan on February 1 said that the Police have identified the killers of two sisters, Arifa and Akhtar, who were, as reported earlier, killed on January 31 in Sopore in Baramulla District, reports Times of India. Of the three militants two identified as local militants Muzaffar Naiko and Wasim Gania — students of a madrassa (seminary) in Muslim Peer locality in Sopore. Another militant was a suspected Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) cadre. "There are around 13 madrassas in Sopore and the Government is aware of their existence. We'd informed the authorities about their indoctrination but nothing was done about it," said an unnamed Police officer. SP Altaf Khan said these madrassas are breeding grounds for militants, adding, "We have strong inputs that these are run by the Lashkar."
