Jammu and Kashmir Police on Monday filed chargesheet against four terrorists involved in last year's South Kashmir terror attack, wherein six policemen were killed.

The Anantnag police presented the chargesheet before the session's court.

The chargesheet has been filed under various sections of the Ranbir Penal Code (RPC), Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act and 7/27 Arms Act.

Addressing a press conference here, Anantnag Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Altaf Khan said Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) was involved in the attack.

"It is here to mention that attack was a deadliest militant attack in recent times where six policemen including a Station House Officer were killed in an ambush on a police party in Achabal area of South Kashmir on June 16, 2017," Khan added.

The attack took place in Thajiwara village of Achabal, near Jammu and Kashmir's Anantnag district.
