Shopian/Sopore: A militant affiliated with ISJK was killed in an early morning encounter with government forces in Amshipora area of South Kashmirs Shopian district.
Police sources identified the slain as Ishfaq Ahmad Sofi alias Abdulla bhai, a resident of Model town Sopore.
Police sources said Sofi was associated with Islamic State Jammu Kashmir outfit.”He was earlier associated with Harkatul Mujahideen and later he joined ISJK,” police sources told INS.
Sofi was arrested in 2016 as a part of OGW network and was later released. He however joined militant ranks. He was again detained along with arms in the same year, police sources said. As soon as he was released six months later, he again went missing.
“As an OGW he was Harkat-ul-Mujahideen’s man but he switched over to ISJK,” police said.
