JAMMU: A joint team of security forces launched a search operation in the border belt of J&K’s Rajouri district on Monday after a Nowshera resident alerted local police about three suspects spotted the night before. Officials said a similar operation was also underway in the forest belt of Poonch district.
“In view of the prevailing situation, security agencies do not want to take any chances,” said an official source, adding that both operations continued till the late hours.
In Jammu, J&K Police’s South Zone — in a bid to ensure public safety and strengthen community-police relations — led by SP South Jammu Ajay Sharma, patrolled key public spaces. “The objective was to not only assess the local security environment but also foster a sense of trust and shared responsibility between the law enforcement and the public,” said a cop. SP Sharma urged citizens to stay alert and report any suspicious activity.
Following the recent Indo-Pak hostilities in the aftermath of the Pahalgam terror attack, security forces have intensified patrolling and have been conducting routine search operations in vulnerable areas near forests along the border and adjoining places.
Last week, searches were launched in a forested area in Samba district following inputs about three terror suspects. On being alerted by locals, a joint team of police and paramilitary forces laid a cordon in the forests of Nangal, Chilladanga, Goran and adjoining areas late May 16. On May 15, similar operations were conducted in Reasi and Samba districts after tip-offs about some suspects.
