A police spokesman, said that police received specific information that, a group of PoS agents is operating in Budgam and involved in cheating innocent people by forging their documents and using them as genuine to procure SIM cards for their personal interests and selling such SIM cards for criminal acts.
“Accordingly, a case under FIR number 201/2022 under relevant sections of law was registered at Police Station Budgam and investigation was taken up,” police said.
“During the course of investigation, 03 persons identified as Iqbal Hussain Khanday son of Ghulam Mohammad resident of Sebdan, Mohammad Ishaq Bhat son of Bashir Ahmad resident of Kremshore and Ghulam Hassan Dar son of Ghulam Nabi resident of Razwen areas of Budgam were arrested,” police added.
