Abdul Aziz Esar had long been on the radar of Indian intelligence agencies for his role in planning cross-border terror activities and inciting violence in Jammu and Kashmir.
In a development that has sparked widespread speculation and concern, Abdul Aziz Esar, a top commander of the banned terror outfit Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM), was found dead under mysterious circumstances in Pakistan바카라™s Punjab province, according to a report by Times Now.
Esar, who was known for his virulent anti-India rhetoric and high-ranking position within JeM바카라™s leadership, was discovered dead early Sunday morning by one of his aides. While the exact cause of death remains unclear, encrypted JeM-affiliated social media channels have denied that Esar died of bullet injuries, further deepening the mystery surrounding his sudden demise.
Local authorities in Pakistan have not released an official statement, and the site of Esar바카라™s death remains under tight security, raising questions about whether the incident could have internal links to power struggles within the organisation or possible covert external actions.
Abdul Aziz Esar had long been on the radar of Indian intelligence agencies for his role in planning cross-border terror activities and inciting violence in Jammu and Kashmir. He was a close aide to JeM founder Masood Azhar, who is designated a global terrorist by the United Nations and several countries, including the US and India.
Esar frequently delivered inflammatory speeches at madrassas and public gatherings across Pakistan, calling for jihad against India and openly supporting infiltration efforts into Indian territory. His death marks a significant loss for JeM, which has in recent years seen increased internal friction, leadership shifts, and external pressure amid growing international scrutiny
