Punjab Police Bust Two ISI-Backed Terror Modules, Arrest Nine Including Juveniles
Punjab Police have dismantled two ISI-backed cross-border terror modules in Amritsar, arresting nine individuals including four juveniles. Authorities recovered three illegal pistols, four petrol bombs, and nine live cartridges. Investigations revealed the accused were allegedly recruited by foreign-based ISI handlers to conduct terror activities, surveillance of security installations, and disrupt public peace. One module reportedly planned an attack at Delhi's Jantar Mantar protest site. Police continue probing the network's wider connections and financial links.
