The fresh Red Corner notice was issued after the NIA secured an ‘’open-ended’’ non-bailable warrant against Azhar and Rauf for allegedly conspiring to carry out terror strike on the strategic Indian Air Force base at Pathankot on the intervening night of January one and two.
Seven security personnel were killed and bodies of four terrorists were recovered from the scene of encounter which lasted nearly 80 hours.
The fresh Red Corner notice is being seen as a mere formality as Pakistan has not yet acted on the arrest warrants earlier issued against the two.
The NIA had also moved in for issuance of RCN against two others -- Kashif Jaan and Shahid Latif -- in this case as they are alleged to be the handlers of the JeM terrorists who had infiltrated India on the intervening night of December 30-31.
The fresh warrants were issued on the basis of evidence presented by the NIA before a Special court in Chandigarh.
