The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has officially taken over the investigation into the recent terror attack on tourists in Pahalgam, which tragically resulted in the deaths of 26 innocent civilians and left many others injured. This move comes after receiving the necessary nod from the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA).

In a statement released by the agency, NIA teams have been deployed at the attack site since Wednesday, intensifying their efforts to gather crucial evidence. The teams, led by senior officials including an Inspector General (IG), a Deputy Inspector General (DIG), and a Superintendent of Police (SP), are meticulously examining the scene of the attack that occurred in the serene Baisaran valley.

Eyewitness accounts are being collected as investigators seek to reconstruct the sequence of events surrounding one of the most devastating terror incidents in Kashmir’s recent history. The NIA spokesperson emphasized that eyewitnesses are being questioned in detail to ensure a comprehensive understanding of the attack’s dynamics.

Furthermore, the NIA teams are closely scrutinizing entry and exit points in the area to uncover potential clues regarding the terrorists’ modus operandi. The investigation is being bolstered by forensic experts who are thoroughly examining the entire vicinity for any evidence that could shed light on the conspiracy behind this heinous act.

The Pahalgam terror attack has sent shockwaves across the nation, and the NIA’s proactive approach aims to bring justice to the victims and their families while reinforcing security measures in the Kashmir Valley.
