Srinagar, Jun 21: In a significant action against terrorism and anti-national elements, Police in Handwara on Saturday attached immovable properties belonging to two individuals from Monbal, Handwara, who stand accused in a long-pending terrorism case.
“The attachment has been executed in connection with FIR No. 198/2003 registered at Police Station Handwara under stringent provisions of law including Sections 13 & 18 of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, Sections 2/3 & 3/4 of the Explosives Substances Act, and Sections 120B, 121A, 302, 307 of the Ranbir Penal Code (RPC).

“J&K Police remains committed to taking strict and sustained action against individuals and groups involved in anti-national and terrorist activities. Further legal proceedings in the matter are underway,” the statement added.
