For years, the Pakistani deep state maintained two convenient lies: first, that terror outfits like Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) had been “dismantled and banned”; and second, that terror masterminds lived in impenetrable safe houses under ISI protection. Both lies collapsed in a single viral video.
In an unprecedented on-camera meltdown, Rizwan Hanif – a high-ranking deputy commander of LeT’s PoK faction wanted by Indian intelligence, publicly admitted that between 30 to 40 senior Lashkar operatives have been systematically gunned down across Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu & Kashmir (PoJK) over the past three to four years.
And who does the jihadist leadership blame? The legendary, silent phenomenon that has sent shockwaves from Peshawar to Karachi: The “Unknown Gunmen”.
The Confession: 40 Terrorists Biting the Dust
Speaking to a crowd of supporters in a speech recorded in PoJK, Hanif openly whined that Lashkar operatives were being hunted down with surgical precision.
“In the last three to four years, over 30 to 40 of our people were killed by Indian intelligence agents – someone in Peshawar, someone in Karachi, someone in Rawalpindi, someone in Muzaffarabad, someone in Rawalakot. They have not allowed our people to live in peace.”
— Rizwan Hanif, Senior Lashkar-e-Taiba Commander
The confession proves that the era of impunity for anti-India terror handlers operating out of Pakistani safe houses is over. Whether in ISI garrison cities like Rawalpindi or terror launchpads in Muzaffarabad, the phantom shooters have turned Pakistan into a graveyard for jihadists.
Hall of Shame: Top Terrorists Neutralised on Foreign Soil
Hanif’s desperate address isn’t hyperbole; it matches the real-world trail of dead terror commanders who met their end at the hands of motorcycle-borne “Unknown Gunman”.
| Terror Mastermind | Outfit / Role | Notable Anti-India Crime | Location of Elimination |
| Razaullah Nizamani (Abu Saifullah Khalid) | Senior LeT Commander | 2005 IISc Bengaluru attack, 2006 RSS HQ attack, 2008 Rampur CRPF camp attack | Shot dead in Badin, Sindh |
| Shahid Latif | Senior JeM Handler | Key conspirator of the 2016 Pathankot Airbase attack | Shot dead in a mosque in Sialkot |
| Hamza Burhan (Arjumand Gulzar Dar) | Al-Badr / LeT Logistics | Logistical coordinator behind the 2019 Pulwama attack | Gunned down in Muzaffarabad, PoJK |
| Paramjit Singh Panjwar | Chief, Khalistan Commando Force | Cross-border arms smuggling & narco-terror funding | Shot dead during morning walk in Lahore |
Radical Meltdown: Anti-Hindu Slurs Mask Deep Desperation
When terror commanders lose their operational grip on the ground, they resort to the only trick left in their playbook: bigoted religious hatred.
Unable to present a single shred of evidence or stop the relentless elimination of his cadre, Hanif launched into a foul-mouthed tirade targeting the Hindu faith. Using derogatory slurs like “cow worshippers” and attacking Hindu deities, Hanif attempted to whip up communal fervor among his dwindling followers.
This bigotry exposes the core ideology of outfits like Lashkar-e-Taiba: they do not fight for “liberation,” but are driven by radical religious hatred against Bharat. However, no amount of hate speech can hide the stark reality that their terror infrastructure is crumbling under internal panic and external paranoia.
Islamabad’s Lie Exposed & The New Doctrine
Pakistan’s official stance before international bodies like the FATF has always been that groups like LeT are “banned” and non-existent. Yet, Rizwan Hanif holds rallies, addresses crowds, coordinates with proxy groups like the People’s Anti-Fascist Front (PAFF), and freely laments his fallen terror brothers on video.
The message from the ground is unambiguous: the “Unknown Gunman” has rewritten the rules of engagement. Anti-India terror operatives who once thought they were safe behind ISI security perimeters are now living on borrowed time.
