Senior Superintendent of Police, Kishtwar Khalil Poswal said that in a significant breakthrough, police in collaboration with Army and CRPF successfully dismantled a hideout belonging to the Hizbul Mujahideen terrorist Jhangir Saroori.
He added that acting on credible intelligence, a joint operation was planned that uncovered and neutralized the hideout located in the Paribag area of Bhadat Saroor, where Jhangir Saroori was suspected of having been hiding and planning subversive activities.
During the search operation, he said that two blankets, edible items and personal use items from the hideout, indicating the presence of the terrorist in the hideout were recovered.
