The National Investigation Agency carried out coordinated raids at ten locations across Jammu and Kashmir, targeting a Lashkar‑e‑Taiba terror conspiracy and probing a local support network.
The National Investigation Agency (NIA) launched a series of raids on Tuesday at ten separate locations in the union territory of Jammu and Kashmir. The operation was aimed at dismantling a Lashkar‑e‑Taiba (LeT) terror conspiracy that authorities say has been nurtured by a local support network.
According to official statements, the raids were part of an ongoing investigation into the financing, recruitment and logistical assistance provided to LeT operatives in the region. NIA teams searched the premises for evidence, documents and any material that could link the network to terrorist activities.
While the agency has not disclosed the names of the sites or the number of individuals detained, it confirmed that the sweeps were conducted in coordination with local law‑enforcement agencies. The NIA emphasized that the action underscores its commitment to curbing terrorism and disrupting support structures that facilitate extremist operations.
The raids come amid heightened security vigilance in Jammu and Kashmir, where intelligence agencies have been monitoring the activities of banned groups. Officials said the investigation remains active and further actions may follow based on the findings from the recent searches.
No injuries were reported during the operations, and the NIA has urged the public to cooperate with any ongoing inquiries related to the case.
