The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has made significant progress in its investigation of the Pahalgam terror attack that occurred on April 22, 2025, resulting in the deaths of 26 people, mostly tourists. A crucial piece of evidence is a US-made GoPro camera, originally supplied to China, which was found with three terrorists killed in an encounter in the Dachigam forests in July 2025. Investigators are now focused on tracing the camera's supply route to understand how it ended up with the Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), a banned terrorist organization operating in Jammu and Kashmir. The NIA has filed a chargesheet against the LeT and six individuals, including the slain attackers. The agency suspects that the camera could have been procured by the Pakistani military before being diverted to terrorist groups. As India lacks a Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty with China, the investigation into the camera's origins will proceed through diplomatic channels. This development highlights the broader logistical networks supporting terrorism in the region.
