Man Arrested for Stone Pelting on Kashmir-Bound Bus in Punjab; No Link to Haryana Incident
Police arrested Abhishek, a habitual offender from Uttar Pradesh residing in Doraha, for pelting stones at a Srinagar-bound bus near Doraha, Punjab. The attack, which shattered a windowpane, is not linked to a similar incident involving the same transporter in Haryana. Authorities said the accused targeted vehicles for mischief and snatching, with two accomplices still at large. Investigations, supported by CCTV footage, found no evidence of a hate crime or targeted assault on Kashmiris.
