New Delhi: In a major development, the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) has issued a memo warning of possible attempts by Pakistan-based outfits or individuals to hijack airlines from Nepal, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka to India. Top sources confirm that ICAO will be sharing all intelligence inputs with Indian authorities to counter this threat.
This alert comes amid revelations that key terrorists targeted in India’s May 7 strikes in Pakistan were high-profile operatives of the Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), with direct links to the Pakistani establishment.
Terrorists Neutralized in Indian Strikes
Among those killed in the operation was Mudassar Khadian Khas, also known as Abu Jundal, a top LeT commander responsible for overseeing Markaz Taiba in Muridke, Pakistan. His funeral saw a shocking display of state support, with a guard of honour given by the Pakistan Army.
Wreaths were laid on behalf of Pakistan Army Chief General Asim Munir and Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif.
– The funeral prayers, held at a government school, were led by Hafiz Abdul Rauf, a designated global terrorist from Jamaat-ud-Dawa (JuD).
– A serving Lieutenant General of the Pakistan Army and the Inspector General (IG) of Punjab Police attended the ceremony, underscoring deep state-terror links.
ICAO’s Hijacking Alert
The ICAO memo highlights concerns over Pakistan-based elements planning to hijack aircraft from neighboring countries to India. Security agencies have been put on high alert, with enhanced surveillance at airports and intelligence-sharing mechanisms activated.
Key Takeaways:
1. India’s strikes on May 7 eliminated high-value LeT targets with direct Pak Army backing.
2. Pakistani state’s involvement in terror glorification exposed as top officials attend terrorist’s funeral.
3. ICAO warns of possible hijacking plots from Nepal, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka to India.
Security analysts say the developments confirm Pakistan’s continued patronage of terrorism, even as India remains vigilant against aerial threats.
