A BJP MLA in Jammu and Kashmir has stoked a controversy by alleging that some police officials of the state were agents of ISIS and Pakistan, accusing the men in khaki of taking money from 2008 Mumbai attack mastermind Hafiz Saeed, Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) and Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM).

"There are some elements of Pakistan in police which, I think, take money from ISIS, (Pakistani spy agency) ISI, militants, Hafiz Saeed, LeT and JeM and vitiate the atmosphere in Nowshera, Sundarbani and Rajouri-Poonch," BJP MLA from Naushera Ravindra Raina alleged in a video.

The video, which was released by Independent MLA from Langate Sheikh Abdul Rashid, shows Raina making the statement while talking to reporters.
 

Rashid, on his part, claimed the video clearly shows how the BJP MLA was threatening to kill him.

He also said it was for the top officials of the police to answer the serious allegations leveled by the BJP MLA.
