New Delhi: The Special Cell of the Delhi Police is on the lookout for Mohammad Rafi Najar, who is allegedly the financier of the terrorist outfit Hizbul Mujahideen. Najar, a resident of Sopore in Jammu and Kashmir, is accused of providing money through hawala from Pakistan for carrying out terror activities in the valley.
According to the police, Najar runs a business of Pashmina Shawls and Carpets but uses it as a cover to receive funds from Pakistan. The money is then used to finance the operations of Hizbul Mujahideen, one of the largest and oldest militant groups operating in Jammu and Kashmir.
The police got the lead on Najar after they arrested Javed Ahmed Mattu, a top Hizbul Mujahideen terrorist, from Delhi’s Nizamuddin area last week. Mattu, who was carrying a reward of Rs 15 lakh on his head, was wanted for his involvement in at least 11 terror-related cases in Jammu and Kashmir. He had been on the run for around 15 years and was among the top ten listed terrorists in India.
During interrogation, Mattu disclosed that he was in touch with Najar, who looked after the financial affairs of Hizbul Mujahideen. He also revealed the names of some of his accomplices who were hiding in Jammu and Kashmir and were involved in channelizing the funds through hawala from Pakistan. The police said that these accomplices were also planning to assist Mattu in carrying out terror strikes in Delhi and Jammu and Kashmir.
