Five terrorists from the Lashkar-e-Taiba terror organization were detained in a joint operation carried out by the Central Reserve Police Force and the Jammu and Kashmir police that busted a terror racket in the Kulgam area of Jammu and Kashmir, said an official statement released on Sunday.

As per the report, the terrorists apprehended have been identified as Aadil Hussain Wani, Suhail Ahmad Dar, Aitmad Ahmad Laway, Mehraj Ahmad Lone, and Sabzar Ahmad Khaar. The forces seized two handguns, three hand grenades, one UBGL, two pistol magazines, 12 pistol rounds, and 21 AK-47 rounds, among other weapons and ammunition found in their possession.
