Kashmir: At least six LeT militants arrested in Srinagar
According to sources, acting on a tip-off, Srinagar police laid a cordon at Tangpora bypass, on an outskirt area of Srinagar, summer capital of the state, on Sunday evening.
“During searches six youths believed to be Lashkar-e-Toiba workers have been arrested along with an AK-47 and other ammunition,' a police officer said.
"Two vehicles have also been seized,” the officer added.
The official termed the arrest of the six LeT activists as a major success, as the members were scheduled to meet their counterparts in north Kashmir as part of an arms deal.
Meanwhile, police have registered a case and have started further investigations.
