The commanders of terror outfits active in Jammu and Kashmir are falling like nine pins in the face of heightened activity of the security forces. Nine of the dreaded terrorists fell to the bullets of the security forces in the past one-and-a-half years.

After killing Burhan Wani, a Hizbul Mujahideen operative who was a 'humble school teacher's son' to the lib-left, the forces had issued a list of 12 most wanted terrorists. Nine of them have been liquidated.

The Army, paramilitary and police are now on a lookout for Lashkar-e-Toiba's Zeenat ul Islam, Ansar Gazwatul Hind's Zakir Musa and Hizbul Mujahideen's Riyaz Naiku.
