Faisal Husain Awan, a resident of Potha Jandgran in Azad Kashmir, and his school-friend Ahsan Khursheed, from Khilayana Khurd in Muzaffarabad’s Hattian Bala tehsil, were handed over to the Indian Army for repatriation after the National Investigation Agency (NIA) of India informed a local court that it had no evidence to prosecute them and that they are being released.
They were arrested by the Indian Army on September 21, three days after the attack in which 19 soldiers were killed, and were labeled as Jaish-e-Muhammad activists.
