JAMMU: Investigations into the Nagrota encounter case have revealed that the four slain Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) terrorists were in constant touch with their handlers in Pakistan.

According to sources, investigating agencies retrieved some text messages, suspected to have originated from the terrorists’ handlers in Pakistan, from the mobile phones recovered from the truck in which they had been travelling.

One text message shared with the media reads, “Kahan phnche, kya soorte haal hai. Koi mushkil toh nahi (Where have you reached? How are things?. I hope no trouble so far).” The terrorist handling the mobile phone replied briefly: “at 2 o’clock”.
