According to media reports today, the Gujarat Police Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS) detained four people, including three Kashmiris, who were reportedly tied to an international organisation.
For the last three days, an ATS special team has been conducting special operations in Gujarat’s Porbandar and nearby districts.
According to The Hindu, they are related to the Islamic State – Khorasan Province, an affiliate of the Islamic State, ATS sources claimed on Saturday.
Gujarat Police claimed to have apprehended three Kashmiri youngsters named Ubaid Nazir, Hanan Hayat Shawl, and Mohammad Hazim Shah. Another Gujarati lady was apprehended.
A large convoy of authorities, including Gujarat Anti-Terrorist Squad DIG Deepen Bhadran, has arrived in Porbandar. It is suspected that authorities, including the IG, are here in connection with the covert operation. A convoy of officers came to the Special Operations Group (SOG) headquarters in Porbandar, where the ATS had successfully concluded the mission.
According to ATS sources, DIG Deepan Bhadran, SP Sunil Joshi, DYSP KK Patel, DYSP Shankar Chowdhury, and other officers were engaged in the activities.
“Scrutiny has also been increased on all locals associated with foreign nationals.” “Today, top ATS or Gujarat Police officials can make an announcement about the entire operation,” ATS sources stated.
