“01/2025 of Police Station CI/SIA Kashmir. The case is related to the sleeper cell module operating in the Valley at the behest of terrorist commanders of proscribed terrorist organisations of Lashkar-e-Taiba and Jaish-e-Mohammad. The module is used for spreading secessionist propaganda thereby radicalising and recruiting the youth into the terror fold,” reads the statement.
It reads that today’s search operation was conducted simultaneously across 7 districts in north, central and south Kashmir. “During raids, substantial incriminating materials have been seized, and the suspects have been rounded up for further questioning,” it reads.

“Searches highlight the continued and unrelenting efforts of the State Investigating Agency to ensure that the whole of the module is dismantled & with aim to strike at roots of the terror ecosystem,” it reads. (KNO)
