In an interview to The Quint, uploaded on Saturday (July 26), Chidambaram said the Pahalgam attackers “for all we know could be homegrown terrorists” and “why do you assume that they came from Pakistan”? He also said that “there is no evidence” that the terrorists came from Pakistan.

Suleiman was an A-category commander of Lashkar-e-Taiba, he told the House. “Afghan was an A-category Lashkar-e-Taiba terrorist. And Jibran was also an A-grade terrorist.” He was also involved in killing of seven employees of a firm constructing Z-Morh tunnel on Srinagar-Sonamarg highway on October 20 last year.

The other two were Afghan and Jibran. Both A-grade terrorists, Shah added.

Security forces went to great extent to establish that the terrorists were same as those involved in Pahalgam attack, he added.
