Three arrested for alleged logistical support to militants in Rajouri

Authorities in Rajouri have taken three individuals into custody on charges of facilitating militant operations in the region, officials said on Thursday. The arrests are part of an ongoing crackdown on support networks suspected of aiding terrorist groups active in Jammu and Kashmir.

During interrogation, the accused disclosed information that led to the recovery of significant weaponry and explosives. Police recovered one pistol complete with a magazine and ammunition, along with two Chinese-manufactured hand grenades from locations identified by the detainees.

The recovery of the weapons and grenades suggests an operational infrastructure in place for militant activities in the area. Rajouri district has witnessed periodic militant incidents, and authorities have intensified counter-terrorism operations to dismantle support networks operating across the region.

The arrested individuals are currently under police custody as investigations continue. Authorities have not disclosed the identities of the accused or provided details about the specific nature of the logistical support they allegedly rendered to militant organisations. Further charges are expected as the probe advances.
