A senior official told Early Times on the condition of anonymity that police have got access to “clinching evidence” that the truck had travelled to Punjab in the recent past but that what could be laden in the vehicle was being ascertained.
Sources said it was also being as ascertained as to what possible route the truck had taken for the travel before ferrying the terrorists towards Kashmir.
The sources in police have been saying that the truck may have lifted the four Pakistani terrorists from Samba, where they are believed to have infiltrated through a recently dug up tunnel in the area.
After sneaking in through this terror tunnel, all the four Jaish terrorists, who were recently killed at the Nagrota toll post, taking advantage of darkness and thick elephant grass had managed to reach the roadside to board the truck that was already waiting for them.
