NIA officials said the raids were conducted at 12 locations following information regarding infiltration of active militants into Indian territory from across the border.
“The case is linked with the series of attacks carried out by terrorists on security forces and civilians some months ago as part of a larger criminal conspiracy by terror organisations to wage a war against the Government of India,” read the official statement.
NIA informed that 12 locations in Jammu district were searched as part of the operation, and several incriminatory material linking the militants with OGWs was seized. NIA teams are examining the material to unravel the ‘terror conspiracy’.
“The action followed information received by NIA regarding infiltration of LeT and JeM terrorists into India through the international border and the Line of Control…reports suggested that the terrorists were facilitated by OGWs and terror associates living in border areas,” read the statement.
NIA officials have claimed that besides providing logistical support, food, shelter and money, the suspects were involved in guiding the militants through the difficult terrains of Jammu to ensure their safe passage.
