After the Pampore attack, raids were carried out at various places in Pulwama during which the security agencies gathered information that it was a group of four 'fidayeens' behind the attack. Security agencies are now hot on the trail of the driver. Security agencies have identified the driver of the car which ferried the 'fidayeen' terrorists who ambushed a CRPF bus killing eight personnel, as a probe pointed to the LeT attackers having infiltrated into Kashmir Valley through higher reaches of Gulmarg early last month. Piecing together the evidence collected by the security agencies so far, they said the four 'fidayeens' (suicide attackers) infiltrated through the higher reaches of Gulmarg in north Kashmir and reached south Kashmir in a Tata Sumo vehicle. The driver, who has gone underground since the day of the attack, was considered as Over Ground Worker (OGW) of the militant outfit by the local police but no action was taken against him as there was no evidence so far, the sources said.
