Now, Pak resorts to female militants in J&K proxy war

The burqa-clad recruits have formed an organistion, Anjuman-e-Khawateen, to sell dreams to gullible local girls and enlist them for carrying out subversive activities.

A senior defence official told UNI a smilar organisation, Dukhataran-e-Millat, set up earlier with the help of local girls was wound up as it could not succeed in its nefarious activities.

The sources said these militants had a striking resemblance with the local girls which made it easy for them to mingle with them.

They said earlier foreign mercenaries found support from the local people for their needs like food, shelter and even money. But with the support no longer there, they aredesperately looking for other modus operandi to win back the locals.

The militants also used to enter into a short-term contract marriage, `mutah’, with the local girls, after the expiry of a certain period both parties were free from their obligations the militants were hired by Pakistan for two to four years.

One of the reasons why this system failed to work was that the local girls forsaken by their partners and families were left alone to fend for themselves.

Their families having realised futility of `mutah’ were reluctant to enter into a relationship with the militants, who were unconcerned with the local ethos. The militants are trying to make up now with the help of their female colleagues.
