A terrorist was arrested in Jammu and Kashmir's Doda district on Sunday. Arms and ammunition were recovered from his possession.
Security forces arrested a terrorist and recovered arms and ammunition from his possession in the outskirts of Doda, Jammu and Kashmir, on Sunday.
The terrorist was identified as Fareed Ahmed, a resident of Koti Doda. A Chinese pistol, two magazines, 14 live cartridges and a mobile phone were recovered by the security forces.
As an increased security measure before the Amarnath Yatra, a police party laid a checkpoint on the outskirts of Doda town and intercepted a man carrying arms and ammunition.
The accused was taken into custody. During the investigation, it was found that Fareed received the ammunition from a suspect earlier in March and was tasked to attack the police personnel in Doda.
It was further discovered that the terrorist was highly radicalised and used to receive calls from terror commanders based across the border and was motivated to work for terror outfits in the Kashmir valley.
Further investigation into the matter is underway.
