Pulwama, Sept 2 (IBNS): Three militants were killed on Tuesday in a joint operation launched by Army, SOG and CRPF in Hajan Bala village of Rajpora, in Pulwama district of Jammu & Kashmir.
Besides the killing of three terrorists, the forces recovered two AK 47 rifles, one self loading rifle, ammunition and other war like stores.   
 
On Monday evening, based on a specific intelligence input about presence of three terrorists at Hajan Bala village of Rajpora, a joint operation was launched by Army, JKP and CRPF, Army said in a statement.  
 
A tight cordon was established, blocking all escape routes.  
 
As the search operation commenced in the morning the terrorists hiding in the village opened fire upon the troops to break the cordon. 
 
The fire was retaliated, ensuing heavy exchange of fire between militants and the security forces resulting into the elimination of all the three militants. 
 
The bodies of the slain terrorists were recovered and handed over to the police. If media reports are to be believed, top Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) commander Altaf Rather was among the dead terrorists.
