The Jammu and Kashmir Police are actively combating terrorism, conducting searches in several locations, including Srinagar. The Counter-Intelligence Wing of the Jammu and Kashmir Police is carrying out these raids. According to officials, the Counter Intelligence Kashmir (CIK) is conducting searches in eight different locations within the valley as part of an ongoing investigation. The locations include Srinagar, Baramulla, Anantnag, Kupwara, Handwara, Pulwama, and Shopian districts. These raids are being conducted based on warrants obtained from a competent court related to FIR number 3/2023.
The Counter-Intelligence Wing has a history of conducting such raids, with similar operations being carried out in July.
