Three suspects were caught red-handed while escaping with a Ladakhi police officer’s service weapon

On September 26 in Srinagar, three people from Delhi and Uttar Pradesh were detained with guns near the Navyug Tunnel on the National Highway between Srinagar and Jammu.

One officer from the Leh district reportedly had his escort PSO’s home broken into, and the Ladakh Police Department reportedly informed the J&K Police in Qazigund about the incident.

They said that the robbers had also made off with a police officer’s duty weapon from the Leh district.

Muhammad Abid, Jairul Sheikh, and Muhammad Nizam were the three men named.

The Kulgam Police Department apprehended the three of them in the Navyug Tunnel and found a weapon, a magazine, and 30 bullets on them.
