Terror-Linked Individual Arrested in Poonch

In Jammu and Kashmir, the security forces yesterday apprehended a terror-linked individual in the Dundak area of the Surankote Sector of Poonch district. The police have confirmed the recovery of four grenades from the suspect, whose arrest could mark a major breakthrough in solving recent terror incidents in the frontier district. The Poonch Police suspect that the individual is linked to the recent two to three grenade attacks that affected Poonch City and Surankote town.

These attacks had raised alarm across these areas, prompting heightened security measures and



search operations. The suspect’s capture has provided vital leads, and the investigation is currently underway to trace any additional terror connections linked to the attacks. 

The security forces in the district have been on high alert, particularly in the wake of a spate of terror-related incidents. The joint operation is being seen as a significant success in curbing the spread of terrorism in the sensitive border district. More details are expected to emerge as the investigation progresses.
