Just two days before a terrorist attack on a CRPF (Central Reserve Police Force) checkpoint in Kulgam, Jammu and Kashmir, a young boy reportedly told the officers, "We will not spare you."
Now, police are trying to track him down to determine whether his warning had any connection with Wednesday's firing.
Lashkar-e-Taiba suspected in Kulgam attack
On November 11, terrorists attacked the checkpoint, injuring three CRPF jawans. The group behind it is suspected to be Lashkar-e-Taiba, led locally by Mohammed Lateef Bhat.
The attackers crept in through dense trees but had to retreat when the injured jawans fired back.
Security forces have sealed off the area and are checking CCTV footage and evidence like a recovered mobile phone as part of their ongoing investigation.
