Reports indicate that though there has been no shortage of the Subscriber Identification Module (SIM) cards of local companies with the militants, they appeared to be more relying upon Pakistani companies while speaking to their ‘commanders’ in the Pir Panjal range and other areas of the State falling close to the Line of Control (LoC) where mobile telephones of Pakistani companies catch signal. This was evident from the recovery of four more SIM cards of an equal number of Pakistan mobile companies from a hide-out of the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) outfit at village Uttrayan in Kishtwar District

Militants of several groups, including the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT), Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) and Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM), are waiting along the Line of Control (LoC) in a bid to infiltrate into Jammu and Kashmir, an unnamed senior army official said on October 5, according to Indian Express. "Operatives of several militant groups like LeT, Hizb-ul-Mujahideen, JeM and HuJI [Harkat-ul-Mujahideen], are positioned along the LoC and making desperate attempts everyday to cross the border. There are eight to nine militants in each group who keep attempting to get a chance to sneak into our territory," he said. He also noted that once they fail to succeed at one place due to high alertness of Indian troops, they immediately move to other locations to make a fresh attempt. He further pointed out, "Pakistan Security Forces are clearly involved in supporting terrorist activities to create insecurity in Jammu and Kashmir, especially in Jammu region."

A Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) militant, identified as Tariq Hussain Bohru, was shot dead by his associate at Duggad in the Keshwan area of Kishtwar District in the night of October 6, reports Daily Excelsior. The Police identified the killer as Sultan Bhat (code name Abu Nurnan). According to Police, the inter-gang rivalry in the LeT was going on due to use of some girls for over ground activities of the militants. Bohru is reported to have opposed the use of girls for carrying arms and ammunition to militant hideouts for which he had to lose his life.

A new phenomenon called 'legal infiltration' is causing concern among security agencies in Jammu and Kashmir as reports emerge that youths are visiting Pakistan on regular visas which are extended to facilitate their basic training in handling explosives and weapons, Times of India reports. The matter came to the fore when Police arrested one person from Budgam who had ostensibly gone across the border for meeting relatives and later extended it by another two weeks during which he underwent the Daura-e-Aam (basic) training being organiszed by Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT). During interrogation, the youth, whose identity has not been revealed, told the investigators that there were other youths who were using the same modus operandi to get the training facility. In first week, a complete religious course is imparted after which assembling of assault rifles and detonating of grenades are taught. An unnamed senior official said LeT adopted this method and has been targeting educated unemployed youth in the Valley. "We have approached the immigration officials to keep a close tab on youth who extended their visas in Pakistan and the Gulf," the official said.

A Pakistani militant of the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) was killed and his local guide arrested in an encounter with Security Forces (SFs) at Lathishat in the Bomai area of Sopore town in Baramulla District on October 10, reported Daily Excelsior. The slain militant, identified as Ikrama alias Topiwalla, was an 'A' category militant and had been active in North Kashmir area for past couple of years, the sources said, adding, Ikrama was a close associate of top LeT ‘commander’ Abdullah Yuni. The arrested local guide was identified as Showkat Ahmad alias Shawa. This is for the second time that Showkat has been detained by the SFs in identical circumstances as he was earlier arrested during a gun battle near Marble. He was let off by the Police after six days, giving him the benefit of doubt.

Faced with the leadership crisis, decreasing number of Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) and Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) cadres and lack of local support in many pockets of the Jammu and Kashmir, the terrorists have made a shift in their operational strategy while over 450-500 trained armed militants are reportedly waiting at the launching pads on that side along the Line of Control (LoC) in the South of Pir Panjal range, reported Daily Excelsior. "There has been a shift in the strategy of militants due to lack of considerable local support from the populace in the hinterland. They are not getting hideouts, food and shelter in the populated areas. Top terrorist leadership has been wiped out and the lower cadre is at the run. They have now changed strategy of mingling with the crowd and processionists, instigate them to resort to violence and stone pelting", General Officer Commanding (16 Corps) and Security Advisor Lieutenant General Rameshwar Roy said at Nagrota, near Jammu on October 13. The Corps Commander also said that the intra-organisational rivalries mostly between LeT and HM have also created problems for them in carrying on their activities. Both the outfits are unable to get new recruits and adequate support from the over ground workers or the local support. The recent spurt in violent crowd in parts of Poonch and Kashmir Valley gave sufficient inputs regarding mixing of such elements with the crowd and indulging in destruction of public property, attacks on forces and instigating youth to stoning, making them their soft targets. While referring to the impact of disturbances in Kashmir Valley, he said that it had a very little effect on this side of the Pir Panjal, which divides the Valley and Jammu region. The protests in Kashmir have disrupted the economy, tourism and other development activities, which otherwise was at peak during 2008, 2009 and first half of 2010. In reply to question he said as per intelligence inputs and intercepts nearly 450-500 trained armed terrorists are waiting to cross over to this side at the launching pads along the Line of Control (LoC) in south of Pir Panjal. There may be almost equal number of militants across the LoC on the north of Pir Panjal but these figures may not be accurate. When asked about the infiltration status in Jammu and Rajouri-Poonch sectors, he said that infiltration attempts have been increased but there was sharp decline in the terrorist violence. There was no let up in the anti-terrorist operations and since January 2010, nearly 227 militants have been eliminated along LoC and the interior areas in the State. He however, claimed that infiltration level was almost zero but in view of human error some times or mountainous topography of the area along LoC in Poonch and Rajouri, a few number may have been able to cross over to this side. When asked about the involvement of women in militancy, he said, "We do not have confirmation about them being active in terrorism but some of them may be working as over ground workers".

One of militants was identified as Abu Hamza, a Pakistani while the other was believed to be Shamas, a local of Rajouri. However, identity of both the militants was yet to be confirmed. Recoveries made from the site of encounter so far included two AK-56 rifles, three magazines with each rifle, a large quantity of ammunition, radio set, two mobile phones and explosive material. Sources said the slain militants were heading towards Rajouri on the directions of a top ‘commander’ of the outfit, code named Atiq, operating in Kashmir.

A self-styled ‘divisional commander’ of the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT), an Army trooper and a civilian were killed in three separate anti-militancy operations of the Army in Jammu and Kashmir, reported Daily Excelsior. Troops launched a search and cordon operation in the Barzulla village of Bandipora District late in night of October 17 following information about presence of militants in the area. In the following encounter, one of the militants was killed while another took refuge in a nearby mosque in an injured condition. The slain militant was identified as LeT ‘divisional commander’ Abu Dawood, the sources said, adding efforts were made to take out the injured militant without encroaching on the sanctity of the place of worship. Meanwhile, the militant lobbed several hand grenades towards Security Forces (SFs) to prevent them from making any movement forward, the sources said.

The two-day standoff between Army troops and an injured militant holed up inside a mosque in the Bandipora District ended in the morning of October 19 as the militant was found dead, taking the toll in encounter to two. "The militant, who had taken refuge inside a mosque in Barzulla area of Bandipora District, was found dead inside the religious place this morning by the village elders," a senior Police official said. He said the militant might have died due to excessive blood loss through the injuries he had sustained during the initial gunfight on October 18. The slain militant was identified as Abu Qitaal of LeT and was a self styled ‘district commander’ of the outfit. As reportedly earlier, another ‘divisional commander’ of the outfit, Abu Dawood, was shot dead by the SFs in the early exchange of firing between the two sides on October 18. Both the slain militants are suspected to be Pakistani nationals.

Nearly 80 trained militants, armed with sophisticated weapons, are waiting to sneak into Jammu and Kashmir from across the border along the Line of Control (LoC) to create trouble in the State in the run up to American President Barack Obama's visit to India early November, reported Times of India. Intelligence inputs, available with security agencies, pointed out that the militants, belonging to Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT), Jaish-e- Mohammad (JeM), Al Badar, Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) and other terror groups, are looking for opportunities to cross over to Jammu and Kashmir. "The next 10 days are very crucial. We have information that the militants will try to engage in violence in the run up to the US president's visit to India," a Government official said. The official said, "Militants may also try to attack security forces and public properties before or during the shift of government machinery from Srinagar to Jammu, the winter capital of the State, on November 4 and 5". "At present, there are about 500 active militants in the State, and there also is need for us to step up vigil in the border areas as the threat of infiltration persists," Jammu and Kashmir's Director General of Police Kuldeep Khoda told reporters in Srinagar on October 21. "The leadership of various outfits such as Hizb-ul-Mujahideen, Lashkar-e-Toiba, Jaish-e-Mohammed, HUJI [Harkat-ul-Jihad-al-Islami] had done recess along the LoC to plan infiltration. The HM supreme and United Jihad Council (UJC) Chief Syed Sallaudin also visited camps to morally boost his cadres along the Indo-Pak border some time back," the sources said.
