Five Anti-India Terrorists Who Met Their End On Foreign Soil

India has been facing the threat of terrorism for decades, especially from groups based in Pakistan and its occupied territories. However, some of these terrorists have not been able to escape the wrath of justice, even on foreign soil.

New Delhi: India has been facing various threats from terrorist groups and separatist movements that operate from foreign soil. These anti-India elements have been responsible for many attacks on Indian soil, such as the Pathankot airbase attack, the Dhangri terror attack, and the IC-814 hijacking. However, in recent months, many of these enemies of India have met their fate in the countries they sought refuge in. From Jaish-e-Mohammed terrorist Shahid Latif to Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar, several terrorists wanted by India have found their end on foreign soil.

 Here are five examples of anti-India terrorists who were killed on foreign soil:
