JALANDHAR: Days after the hand grenade attack at the police post, Asron in Nawanshahr, counter-intelligence (CI), Jalandhar, in a joint operation with SBS Nagar district police, have successfully cracked the case masterminded by the Khalistan Zindabad Force (KZF) with the arrest of three members of the terror module.
Director General of Police (DGP) Gaurav Yadav identified the arrested persons hailing from Nawanshahr as Yugpreet Singh alias Yuvi, a resident of Mohalla Qazian, Jaskaran Singh alias Shah, a resident of Mohalla Jagoteyan and Harjot Singh alias Jot, a resident of Dugglan Mohalla in Rahon.
Police teams have also recovered two weapons—one country-made pistol and one revolver—along with six cartridges from their possession, the DGP added.
The development came less than two weeks after some unidentified persons targeted a police post under Kathgarh police station by hurling a hand grenade on its premises on December 2.
