– Ulfat Hussain is a resident of poonch district in Jammu and Kashmir and has been involved in terrorist activities since 2002.- He was arrested in July 2002, along with three other individuals. Weapons recovered included AK-47 and AK-57 rifles and also explosives.
– They reportedly planned attacks on religious places and crowded areas in Moradabad.
– Granted bail in 2008, Hussain absconded for years.Arrest warrants were issued against him repeatedly (2015, then re-issued for March 2025).
This ruling signifies india’s sustained commitment to identifying and penalizing individuals linked with terrorism. Ulfat Hussain’s prolonged evasion underscores challenges faced by security agencies when tracking fugitives across states or regions like Jammu & Kashmir. His arrest represents the efficiency of inter-agency collaboration between state police forces and counter-terrorism units.
The recovery of arms including advanced assault rifles emphasizes the sophisticated arsenal at the disposal of terror groups active within India’s borders-a concerning reality needing continuous vigilance. While sentencing marks closure regarding legal accountability for crimes committed decades ago, efforts must remain focused on preempting similar threats via intelligence sharing mechanisms across states.
