In a decisive crackdown against terrorism, security forces launched coordinated raids on several locations linked to the banned Jammu and Kashmir Ittihadul Muslimeen in Baramulla district. The operations, carried out late last night, targeted hideouts suspected of harboring militants and storing arms.
Sources familiar with the matter revealed that intelligence inputs pointed to active recruitment and planning of subversive activities from these spots. Teams from the Indian Army, Jammu and Kashmir Police, and Central Reserve Police Force swooped down simultaneously, catching operatives off guard.
Preliminary reports indicate the recovery of incriminating documents, electronic gadgets, and a cache of explosives. No casualties were reported during the raids, but several suspects have been detained for questioning.
Baramulla, strategically located along the Line of Control, has long been a hotspot for terrorist activities. This action underscores the unwavering commitment of security agencies to dismantle terror networks operating under the guise of religious outfits.
Local residents welcomed the move, expressing hope that it would restore normalcy and boost tourism in the scenic valley. Officials emphasized that such operations will continue relentlessly to ensure peace in the region.
As investigations deepen, more revelations about the group’s linkages to cross-border handlers are expected. This raid marks a significant blow to the outfit’s operational capabilities in north Kashmir.
