Several high-profile terrorists have been killed in Pakistan just in the past few months. Who is killing India's enemies on Pakistani soil? Is this the work of Indian secret agents, or is there a deeper and sinister game plan of the ISI?

These include 'A' grade terrorist Habibullah alias Bhola Khan, who is said to be a close relative of Lashkar-e-Taiba, chief Hafiz Saeed.

In November, the killing of Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) chief Maulana Masood Azhar’s close aide, Maulana Raheem Ullah Tariq in Pakistan was the seventh time a most-wanted terrorist in India had been gunned down in Pakistan.

He was on his way to Orangi Township, a sprawling slum in Karachi, to attend an anti-India event when suddenly two unknown assailants sprung out of nowhere and sprayed him with bullets, killing him within moments.

Tariq’s death shocked the Pakistan law enforcement who were quick to say that the death of a terrorist at the hands of unknown assailants was in itself “an act of terrorism”.

The recent killings has created a sense of worry and panic among the notorious criminals who are living in a sense of fear.

Pakistan, which is a safe haven for terrorists, is known to give protection to terrorists because it can then destabilise the Kashmir valley and target India.

However, the deaths of seven wanted terrorists in the last seven months has most likely shaken the Pakistan Army and the Pakistan spy agency, the Inter-Services Intelligence, because these two entities continue to spend millions of dollars in arming and supporting these terrorists. While the killing of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar by unidentified gunmen in June in Canada made this entire issue a global matter and ensured a diplomatic dispute between India and Canada. However, at least 18 such killings have occurred in the last two years in Pakistan, of which 16 have occurred since February this year. And all of these killings have been carried out mostly by using the same modus operandi—gunmen on motorcycles shooting them from close distance and leaving the spot before anyone can understand what has happened. According to the Sunday Guardian the common point of discussion between these group members is that India’s Research and Analysis Wing (R&AW) is behind these attacks.
