Based on these, SIT was able to identify two accused who came on a two wheeler without number-plate to commit this crime and fled on the same vehicle after committing the militant act. During the intense analysis of the CCTV trail in srinagar city, the route adopted by both accused was located back to one neighbourhood in Khanyar area, they said.

The First accused namely Mohd Bariq S/o Md Shafi Magrey R/o Koolipora, Khanyar was arrested from Khanyar, srinagar. His initial examination led to arrest to second accused namely Fazil Nabi Sofi S/o Ghulam Nabi Sofi R/o Koolipora, Khanyar. The two wheeler used in this grenade attack was also seized by SIT, they said.

The statement further stated that it further came out that these two accused had committed the militant act on the directions of active militants in kashmir valley.

The plan was to attack the parked security vehicle but due to grenade throwing from a moving two-wheeler, the target was missed and grenade exploded in an adjacent crowded area where many road-side vendors and buyers were busy in routine works.

Further, it was also found that this particular area was chosen due to the omnipresent chaos and turbulent traffic in this stretch of area due to unorganised vendors and stalls on the road. There have been 2 other recent grenade attacks in this area i.e. on 10th Aug 2021 and on 25th January 2022.

Further investigation is underway and is in full swing in this case, they said.

This act of grenade throwing created terror, panic and anguish among the masses in whole of Srinagar city.

By way of this press release, Srinagar Police requests all commercial establishments/shops to install CCTV cameras inside and outside of their shops/commercial establishments as per advisory issued by DC Srinagar, they said.

This will act as strong deterrence to all the anti-social elements, who think of committing such atrocious crimes, concludes the statement.
