Jammu: A Pakistani spy was arrested from J&K’s Samba district for passing on vital information regarding deployment and movement of security forces to Pakistan. Two Pakistani SIM cards and a map showing deployment of security forces were recovered from his possession.


“Based on information received from Military Intelligence on involvement of one Bodh Raj of village Changiia of Jammu for his espionage activities and passing on vital information regarding deployment and movement of security forces and Army to Pakistan, a special search operation was launched in Ramgarh sector of Samba,” SSP, Samba, Joginder Singh said.


During the search operation, Raj was found roaming in suspicious circumstances in Jerda village, close to the International Border (IB).

Security forces also arrested two Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) militants, who were allegedly involved in the August 16 attack at Khwajabagh that left two army personnel and a cop dead, from Baramulla district of Kashmir. A senior cop said the arrested persons have been identified as Safeer Ahm­ad Bhat and Farhaan Fayaz.
