In a decisive action against militant networks operating in J&K, Kathua police and CRPF 121 BN initiated a joint search operation across 17 suspected locations on Thursday.
The operation was aimed at dismantling the OGW support system of the militants providing financial and logistics support in the areas of Malhar, Bani, and the upper reaches of Billawar.
The raids led to the identification, arrest, and detention of at least 10 over-ground workers (OGWs) and several terror suspects. The joint teams of security forces and police also managed to seize electronic devices in connection with investigations.
Meanwhile, the FIR has been lodged under the strict UAPA, BNS Act, and EMICO Act. These arrests are termed significant breakthroughs in the ongoing terror operations.
Apart from hinterland areas of District Kathua, raids were also conducted in border areas of Kana Chack, Haria Chack, Spral Pain, and Chack Wajir Lahbju as well.
It's important to mention that security forces along with Kathua police had recently managed to kill three foreign militants associated with the proscribed Jaish-e-Mohammad group in two separate operations.
Besides this, security forces have also carried out raids against the militant ecosystem in the various districts of Jammu and Kashmir.
On November 21, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) conducted raids at 8 locations in connection with a case involving terrorist infiltration in Jammu and Kashmir.
The NIA raids are being conducted at various locations in Reasi, Doda, Udhampur, Ramban, and Kishtwar districts to dismantle the terror ecosystem.
Additionally, security and intelligence have intensified their operations against the cross-border Narco terror network in J&K.
The authorities have also promised stringent action against the people involved in the alleged Narco trafficking, as it poses a serious challenge to the security agencies.
