Ahead of Muzaffarabad march, Pak plans to infiltrate LeT, JeM operatives into PoK protests: Report
Pakistan Army and ISI plan to infiltrate Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) operatives into Joint Awami Action Committee (JAAC) protests in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK).
The infiltration aims to trigger violence and damage public property during the protests ahead of the Muzaffarabad march.
The operatives are intended to provoke clashes with security forces, allowing Pakistan to portray the protest movement as terror-linked.
The plan would provide justification for a wider military crackdown in PoK.
