Alert Cop Uncovers Cavity In Truck Ferrying Terrorists To Kashmir

A major tragedy was averted when an alert policeman uncovered a cavity inside a truck on Jammu-Srinagar highway, ferrying three armed Jaish-e–Mohammed terrorists, police said. A gunbattle broke out between the terrorists and police after the cop spotted the cavity, leaving the policeman injured and all the three terrorists killed. Bhom Raj, who is a constable with the Nagrota police station and deployed for checking at the Bann Toll plaza, said he was unarmed and could not retaliate. “Around 5 am, we intercepted a truck, JK03F-1478, for routine checking. The driver, along with two more persons, was in the front seat of the truck and told us that they are carrying medicine and other items to Kashmir. But we were not satisfied,” Mr Raj said.
