Hunt on for ex-Cong. minister in J&K terror-funding case

The J&K police have launched a manhunt to arrest former minister Jatinder Singh alias Babu Singh in a hawala case, with the security agencies alleging that the money was used for terror funding. 

“Babu Singh is absconding. He will be traced soon. The hidden aim of the hawala money seems to fund separatists and terrorism in J&K. The money trail indicated that it was meant for anti-national activities. More details will emerge only after Mr. Singh is questioned,” Director General of Police (DGP) Dilbag Singh said in Jammu.

Mr. Singh, a Congress leader, was a minister in the erstwhile State of J&K during the PDP-Congress coalition government in 2018.
