NIA releases sketches of Pakistani terrorist Naved's aides, manhunt launched to capture the duo
The two terrorists are Zargham alias Mohammad Bhai and Abu Okasha. They are believed to be residents of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in Pakistan.

Two terrorists who infiltrated into India from Pakistan along with Lashkar-e-Toiba operative Mohammad Naved alias Usman Khan are on the run and sources says that National Investigation Agency (NIA) has released new sketches of the duo.

The sketches were made on the basis of interrogation of arrested Pakistani terrorist Naved. Sources say that four terrorists entered India from Pakistan in July. The two terrorists are Zargham alias Mohammad Bhai and Abu Okasha.

While Naved was caught alive in Jammu and Kashmir's Udhampur after an encounter with security forces, his accomplice Mohammed Noman was killed in the gunbattle. But security forces are still trying to locate the two absconding terrorists.

They are believed to be residents of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa region in Pakistan.

Naved and Noman had targeted a Border Security Force convoy in Udhampur in which two security officials were killed. While Noman was killed by BSF troopers, Naved took three people hostage from a nearby village and fled into the forests where he was overpowered and captured by the villager and handed over to the security forces.

Naved will undergo a polygraph test on Tuesday as the investigators try to join the dots and nail the misleading statements he has made over the past 10 days about his Indian contacts and the route taken to infiltrate Jammu and Kashmir after his training in a Lashkar-e-Toiba camp in Pakistan.

Collecting the DNA samples of the terrorist from Faislabad in Pakistan could help in proving Naved nationality. Islamabad has been insisting that Naved is not a Pakistani national.

Naved was produced on Monday before District Judge Amar Nath at the Patiala House Court in Delhi, who after holding in-camera proceedings, ordered the lie detector test to be performed at 11 AM on Tuesday at the Central Forensic Science Laboratory in CGO complex. Earlier, the terrorist gave his written consent for the test, writing in Urdu.

Before being brought from Jammu last weekend, Naved, in his 20s, was confronted with other terrorists from Faisalabad lodged in various jails and his interrogators concluded he was not lying about where he hailed from.

Sources said the terrorist is likely to be questioned about how many people were with him when the group infiltrated Jammu and Kashmir and people he had met and lived with during his two-month stay in the state.

Sources in the anti-terror agency said Naved has been giving conflicting statements about the strength of the group that infiltrated the state with him and the route taken by them, besides those with whom he came into contact in J&K.
