J&K Police and CIK Carry Out Searches at Eight Kashmir Sites in Decade-Old Terror Probe

Authorities say the raids aim to recover evidence and map alleged Pakistan-linked sleeper networks based on fresh intelligence and technical analysis.

Overview

  • Jammu and Kashmir Police and the Counter Intelligence Kashmir unit launched coordinated searches at eight locations across six districts of the Kashmir Valley on Wednesday, June 3, 2026.
  • The actions are linked to FIR No. 02/2015 at Police Station CIK Srinagar and invoke the Foreigners Act, multiple UAPA provisions, and sections of the Arms Act to guide the inquiry.
  • Officials say recent intelligence and technical analysis pointed to alleged contacts between local suspects and Pakistan-based handlers using encrypted platforms.
  • Search teams obtained court warrants and are working with technical support and security units to recover electronic material and other evidence that could identify facilitators and overground workers.
  • No public reports yet confirm arrests or seizures and authorities say the operation seeks actionable leads to advance prosecutions and better map cross-border facilitation of terrorism.
