Early Times Report
Jammu, Apr 6: Even as higher-ups in police have maintained a guarded silence over arms recovered from the Vijaypur area of Samba district, it is believed that weapons were meant for terrorists of Pakistan.
Highly placed sources said that Pakistan is desperately trying to revive terrorism in peaceful Punjab by instigating radical elements.
“Apart from smuggling narcotics, Pakistan is now trying to send arms and ammunition, especially small arms like pistols to fuel violence”, sources said and added that weapons dropped near Vijaypur were believed to the meant for terrorists of Punjab.
Samba Police on Monday recovered a huge cache of arms and ammunition, suspected to have been dropped by a Pakistani drone, in Rakh Barutia village of Vijaypur sub-division in the border district of Samba.
The arms were dropped close to the under-construction All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) in Vijaypur.
“We received information about some suspicious material wrapped in a yellow packet in Rakh Barutia. A police team immediately rushed to the spot and seized the packet,” police said.
Three China-made pistols, six magazines, 48 bullets, and four Chinese hand grenades have been recovered from the packet.
Important to mention here that in October 2022, a cache of arms dropped by Pakistan near the International Border (IB) in the R S Pura sector was recovered.
These weapons were meant for some terror outfits of Punjab to revive terrorism in the neighboring state.
A UK-based over-ground worker of a proscribed terror outfit of Punjab had coordinated and masterminded the whole design of collecting arms consignment through Pakistan and supplying the same to some Khalistani terrorists of Punjab.
Arms recovered near the R S Pura have no connection with the terror outfits of Kashmir. The consignment was dropped by Pakistani drones for some terrorists of Punjab, reports said.
As reported earlier, Jammu Police in October 2022 arrested two persons and recovered a consignment of arms and ammunition dropped through a drone near the border in the R S Pura sector.
As per the police, the consignment was dropped from across the border on the intervening night of October 27 and 28, 2022 at Baspur Bangla area of R S Pura through a Pakistani drone.
Two terrorist couriers namely Chander Bose of Doda and Shamsher Singh of Camp Gole Gujaral Jammu were arrested by the police. The duo was in touch with Balvinder Singh of Jammu, who is now settled in the UK.
Recoveries made from their possession include four pistols with eight magazines and 47 rounds. This is the fourth cache of drone consignment by Jammu Police this year.
During initial questioning, both the arrested persons informed the police that Balvinder Singh alias Babloo is coordinating between agencies of Pakistan and some terror outfits of Punjab to revive terrorism.
A native of Jammu, Balvinder Singh is settled in London and working as an overground worker of a banned terror group in Punjab.
Jammu and Kashmir Police have already set up four special teams to question family members and relatives of Balvinder Singh to collect some evidence of his involvement in terror activities. |
