Accused Tariq had facilitated all the terrorists at his house for sheltering and for the planning of the heinous attack on the CRPF convoy. His house was also used by the terrorists for preparing and recording of video of Fidayeen Adil Ahmed Dar, which was released by Jaish-e-Mohammad soon after the Pulwama attack.

Another accused Insha Jan who is the daughter of Tariq Shah facilitated the terrorists at their home and provided food and other logistics.
