One of the biggest developments in the probe of Pulwama terror attack is that the NIA has now in its custody two terrorists- Nisar Ahmed Tantray and Sajjad, who are believed to have aided the suicide bomber Aadil Ahmed Dar.

Sources say that Tantray had helped Aadil Ahmed Dar procure a vehicle and load it with improvised explosive devices, with the help of one Yasir, a Pakistan-based Jaish-e-Mohammed terrorist.

JeM chief Masood Azhar took responsibility for the Pulwama terror attack carried out against Indian security personnel on February 14, wherein an explosives-laded SUV rammed a CRPF bus and killed all 40 onboard.
