The Jammu and Kashmir Police on Sunday seized five more grenades along with a piston and 35 rounds from a village along the Line of Control in the Mendhar area of Poonch district and claimed to have foiled a “major terror plot to fuel tension in Jammu division”.

“Handlers from across the border dropped the consignment in hidden patches near the LoC and these terror associates picked it up for further carriage into the hinterland,” a police statement said.

The total recovery made so far include 13 grenades, three pistols, five pistol magazines, 105 pistol bullets, four Pakistan made balloons, one flag of Tehreek ul Majahideen Jammu and Kashmir and 18 posters of J&K Ghaznavi Force.
