Security forces on Thursday stormed the hotel in Lal Chowk killing two LeT terrorists including a Pakistani in the 22-hour operation that has left a policeman and a civilian dead.
The Pakistani terrorist was identified by the security agencies through wireless intercepts as Qari while the other was named as Usman from Sopore.
Hotel Panjab in the busy Lal Chowk area in the heart of the city caught fire this morning as the security forces inched closer to the militants who were holed up in the top floor and were hurling grenades and firing at them.
The operation launched by police and paramilitary CRPF to neutralise the militants, suspended at around 11 PM yesterday, was resumed at 0700 hours today, officials said.
The security forces stormed the hotel before noon and conducted room to room searches after people from nearby buildings were evacuated.
