The case dates back to February 6, 2018, when two J&K Police personnel were killed during a gunfire incident while escorting LeT terrorist Naveed Jatt to SMHS Hospital, Srinagar, for a medical examination.
Jatt, a Pakistani terrorist, was forcibly released in the attack orchestrated by the two accused, under the command of their LeT leaders based in Pakistan. Jatt was later killed in a 2018 encounter with security forces.
