India cricket coach Gautam Gambhir receives death threat from 'ISIS Kashmir'
As the nation copes with the deadly attack on tourists in Pahalgam by the Islamic terrorists, Indian cricket head coach Gautam Gambhir has reportedly received death threats from "ISIS Kashmir".
According to news agency ANI, Gambhir has approached police over a death threat from 'ISIS Kashmir'.
He has reached out to Delhi Police seeking immediate action, the agency reported citing the former MP's office.
Gambhir has filed a formal complaint after he received an email saying "I kill you."
A member of parliament from 2019 to 2024 representing the East Delhi constituency from the Bharatiya Janata Party, Gambhir is a Padma Shri recipient.
In one of the worst terror strikes that targeted non-Muslim tourists in Jammu and Kashmir's holidayers' magnet Pahalgam, Pakistan-backed gunmen killed at least 26 people and injured many others, triggering a nationwide outrage and shaking the Modi government on the security situation in the region that was witnessing peace and a surge in return of vacationers.
The attack- when Hindu men were asked to recite Islamic verses (kalma) and stripped to check if they were non-Muslims, is the deadliest since the 2019 Pulwama strike and aimed at hitting the economy of a resurgent Kashmir as it sent a chilling message to the state of India since tourists were largely spared by the terrorists in the past.
