The National Investigation Agency (NIA) reported that three more persons have been arrested in connection with the IED explosion that struck a police station in Himachal Pradesh. The arrests were made following coordinated raids in the region, according to official statements.
Earlier this month, the NIA had already detained several suspects linked to the same incident, indicating a broader network behind the attack. Investigators said the newly apprehended individuals are believed to have played roles in planning or supplying the explosive device.
Authorities have not disclosed the identities of the accused or detailed evidence, but they emphasized that the probe remains active and that further arrests could follow. The police station, which sustained damage but no reported casualties, is now under heightened security as the investigation continues.
