JAMMU: The State Investigation Agency (SIA) Jammu has filed a chargesheet against key operatives behind the “Kashmir Fight” social media platform, used by the proscribed terrorist organization The Resistance Front (TRF) to issue threats to migrant Kashmiri Pandit employees.
According to the chargesheet, in February 2024, a series of threatening posts targeting the employees led to an investigation by the SIA. Farhaan Muzaffar Mattoo, a Srinagar resident, was arrested for allegedly gathering and sharing sensitive information about migrant employees. The investigation revealed Mattoo’s role in passing this data to handlers in Pakistan, who then issued threats via the “Kashmir Fight” platform.
The chargesheet also names Sheikh Sajjad Ahmad, alias Sajjad Gul, a Srinagar native now operating from Pakistan, as the mastermind behind the plot. The charges include coordinating the campaign to intimidate migrant employees and disrupt communal harmony. (KDC)
