Srinagar: Danish Ahmed, a terrorist spotted in a video of Hizb-ul-Mujahideen commander Sabzar Bhat's funeral last month, has surrendered in Jammu and Kashmir's Handwara, the police said today.
Ahmed is a third year student at the Doon PG College of Agriculture Science and Technology in Uttarakhand's Dehradun.
In a video clip that was widely shared on social media, he was seen in all-black, holding a grenade and shouting slogans at the funeral.
Bhat, the successor to Hizbul commander Burhan Wani who was killed last year, was shot dead in a massive anti-terror operation on May 27.
The police reportedly contacted his family after the video surfaced.
"His parents were convinced that if he surrenders, he would be dealt with fairly under law. Efforts made by security forces yielded results and Danish surrendered before police and 21 Rashtriya Rifles of army in Handwara," he added.
Ahmed has reportedly told the police that terrorists in south Kashmir are mainly involved in extortion and looting. He also confirmed that money is freely flowing from Pakistan for funding of terror in Jammu and Kashmir.
