"Police are apprehending clashes among the rival gangs, if the alleged criminals are not apprehended timely," indicated sources further adding that "photographs of the wanted criminals have also been circulated among the police stations and police posts, so that the police officers who have been transferred and posted in Jammu for the first time could easily spot the criminals."
