Akash Mehra (25), the scion of Srinagar’s Krishna Vaishno Dhaba, succumbed to his injuries at SMHS Hospital in Srinagar District of Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) in India on February 28, reports The Times of India. On February 17 evening, three Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) militants had shot Akash at the Dalgate eatery owned by his father Ramesh Kumar Mehra, leaving him with critical chest and abdominal injuries. Earlier, SATP had reported the incident on February 17. Soon after, the little-known Muslim Janbaz Force (MJF), owned responsibility for the strike in a statement, claiming it was in retaliation to “outsiders” being allowed to settle in J&K under the new domicile rules.On February 19, Inspector General of Police (IGP), Kashmir Range, Vijay Kumar had announced the arrest of the newly recruited Lashkar trio, Suhail Ahmad Mir and Owais Manzoor Sofi from Anantnag, and Vilayat Aziz Mir from Pulwama, and recovery of the bike and weapon used in the crime.During interrogation, the trio also confessed that the attack was carried out to instil fear among tourists on a day when a 24-member European Union delegation was on a two-day visit to the Valley. The Resistance Front (TRF) ‘commander’ Gazi had lured and tasked them with attacking the Dhaba, which remains open even during strikes and always sees a rush of tourists.Although Ramesh Mehra, whose roots are in Jammu’s Janipora, is a permanent resident of the Valley, the MJF claimed the attack was just the beginning of its campaign against those who had newly acquired domicile certificates.The fledgling TRF, another Pakistan-backed terror group with moorings in Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) and Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM), had been among the first to threaten and mount attacks on non-Muslim beneficiaries of the domicile law.
