JAMMU, Mar 15: The State Investigation Agency (SIA) conducted raids at seven locations across different districts of the Jammu province on Friday as part of its investigation into a Pakistan-backed terror conspiracy case, according to an official statement. Obtaining search warrants from the designated court in Jammu, SIA teams simultaneously conducted searches at three places in Doda district, two places in Reasi district, and one place each in Ramban and Jammu districts in the morning, stated a spokesperson of the anti-terror agency. The raids targeted the residential premises of Hasan Babar Nehru and Mohd Irfan in Bhagwah, Sabder Ali in Phagsoo in Doda; Abdul Rashid in Arnas, Shamshad Begum in Pouni in Reasi; Abdul Rashid Naik in Khari in Ramban; and Sajad Ahmed alias “Shadu” in the Sidhra area of Jammu. During the searches, several android mobile phones and incriminating materials were seized, with expectations of deriving leads from the seized articles to uncover a deep-rooted conspiracy of terrorist networks, the spokesperson mentioned. The official further stated that the raids were conducted as part of an ongoing probe into a case registered at the SIA, Jammu, aimed at unraveling a criminal conspiracy orchestrated by the cadre and Over Ground Workers (OGWs) of various terrorist organizations and their affiliates. Intelligence inputs indicate the presence of numerous border guides and couriers facilitating terrorist networks by aiding infiltration of terrorists from across the border and guiding them through the rugged terrain, circumventing anti-infiltration obstacles erected by security forces, the official added. Many of these individuals remain in contact with their Pakistani handlers and active terrorists through mobile phones and various applications, as per the official’s statement.
