Jammu, Feb 13: Security forces on Tuesday launched a massive search operation after army personnel foiled a suspected terrorist attack on their camp at Domana area in the outskirts of Jammu city, three days after a deadly strike by Jaish-e-Mohammad group killed seven people at Sunjuwan military station, an official said.
Helicopter was being used to conduct surveillance of the area during the search operation which began following reports about movement of some suspicious people.
Sentries at an army camp noticed some suspicious movement and opened fire during wee hours of the morning. However, nothing has been found so far
Jammu-based Army spokesperson Lt Col Devender Anand said that in the wake of the speculation search operation has been launched in the area as the precautionary measure yet nothing concrete has been found, so far.
A senior police officer said two motorcycle-borne terrorists are believed to have approached the main gate of the camp at Domana on Jammu-Akhnoor road around 0430 hours and fired on the sentry post after security officials signalled them to stop, prompting retaliation.
"An investigation has started and a search operation is underway to trackdown the fleeing terrorists," the official said adding that an alert has been sounded in the area.
Heavily-armed terrorists of Pakistan-based Jaish-e- Mohammad (JeM) group struck an Army camp in Sunjuwan area in Jammu on Saturday morning, triggering a gunbattle in which six soldiers and a civilian died while three terrorists were also killed by the security forces. |
