CNN-News18 learned that on Saturday, a suspicious communication sent from a satellite phone, heightened suspicion that Suleiman Shah and his associates were hiding in Dachigam.

The remarks came during a fiery session in the Lok Sabha, with Shah defending the government’s current stance on national security and historical accountability.

Union Home Minister Amit Shah announced in Lok Sabha that security forces neutralized three terrorists involved in the Pahalgam attack during Operation Mahadev. The terrorists, identified as Suleman, Afghan, and Jibran, were A-category members of Lashkar-e-Taiba. Investigation involved questioning over a thousand individuals, creating composite sketches, and detaining those who provided food and shelter to the terrorists.
