Two days after the Srinagar hospital raid, a CCTV footage has emerged that shows the final moments before Lashkar terrorist Naveed Jhatt was freed by the attackers.

In a 52-second clip, Jhatt is seen walking with a seeming calm with the policemen, who were escorting him to the hospital for a regular visit.

At the end, the onlookers are seen shouting as the attackers open fire, which remains unseen in the CCTV footage.

Two policemen were killed in the brazen attack at Srinagar’s Shri Maharaja Hari Singh Hospital. Meanwhile, the Jammu and Kashmir government has suspended the Superintendent of the Srinagar Central Jail. 

The development comes at a time when there are reports that the Hizbul Mujahideen has claimed the responsibility of the attack. Hizbul commander Riyaz Naikoo said that Abu Hanzalla alias Naveed Jhat has reached a ‘safe destination.’ In the 8-minute long audio clip, Naikoo also said that ‘they were forced to kill Kashmiris to free their Pakistani brother.’ This was in reference to the killing of two policemen in Tuesday’s attack. 

The SMHS attack rocked the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly also. The Mehbooba Mufti government has said that it would probe the attack and security lapse. An FIR has been lodged at Karan Nagar police station and a probe has begun.
