NIA to File Chargesheet in Deadly Pahalgam Terror Attack Case
New Delhi, December 15, 2025 – The National Investigation Agency (NIA) is set to file a chargesheet today in connection with the devastating Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 people, mostly tourists, on April 22. The attack, attributed to Pakistan-based terrorists, prompted a swift response from Indian armed forces.
NIA investigations revealed the direct involvement of three terrorists in the attack. The agency will present the chargesheet before a special NIA court in Jammu.
In June, the NIA arrested two individuals, Parvaiz Ahmad Jothar and Bashir Ahmad Jothar, both residents of the Pahalgam area, for harboring the terrorists. The arrested men identified the three assailants as Pakistani nationals affiliated with the Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) terrorist group, and revealed that they had provided the terrorists with food, shelter, and logistical assistance.
The three LeT terrorists were killed on July 28 on the outskirts of Srinagar during a counter-terrorism operation code-named ‘Operation Mahadev’.
Following the Pahalgam attack, the Indian armed forces launched ‘Operation Sindoor’ on May 7, carrying out precision strikes against nine terrorist hideouts in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK). The targeted sites included headquarters and training centers of LeT and Jaish-e-Mohammed.
The NIA’s filing of the chargesheet marks a significant step in the investigation of the Pahalgam terror attack.
