Jammu: Jammu & Kashmir Police’s State Investigation Agency (SIA) raided the Jammu office of the Kashmir Times newspaper on Thursday and recovered cartridges of AK rifles, some rounds of pistols and hand grenade pins.

The raid was carried out after a case was registered against the media organisation and its promoters for allegedly promoting activities against the country. ADVERTISEMENT

The SIA team conducted a thorough search of the newspaper’s premises on Residency Road and computers in the case registered under Section 13 of Unlawful Activities Prevention Act.

“The raids are against alleged involvement in anti-national activities, attempts to spread disaffection against the country and peddling narrative of separatists,” Hindustan Times quoted sources as saying.
