    Security forces in North Kashmir’s Bandipora on Sunday caught two Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) terrorist associates.

    Officials said that a joint naka was established by the police and army, and during searches, the two LeT associates were arrested along with arms and ammunition.

    “From their possession, 2 Chinese grenades, 2 UBGL grenades and 10 rounds of AKs were recovered,” officials added. The arrested have been identified as Ab Majid Gojri, a resident of SK Bala, and Ab Hamid Dar, a resident of Vijpara.

    Meanwhile, the police have registered a relevant case under UAPA and have initiated an investigation.

    On Wednesday, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) conducted searches at two locations in Srinagar and Handwara districts of Jammu and Kashmir in a terror funding case relating to ‘The Resistance Front’ (TRF), a proxy outfit of Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT).

    The searches, conducted at the houses of arrested persons on Wednesday, led to the seizure of crucial documents related to the case, which NIA took over from the state police in May this year, a statement said on Thursday.

    Two people were earlier arrested in the case by the state police. During the investigation, NIA uncovered a foreign trail of funds, which is being probed extensively.

    Investigations further revealed that local youths were being instigated into anti-national activities and were being funded by the terror outfits, said the statement issued by the NIA, without citing further details.

    Both LeT and TRF are proscribed terrorist organisations.
