Security forces recovered an AK-47 rifle, four hand grenades, an IED and 72 rounds of ammunition from an abandoned house in Manzseer, Sopore, on August 24. The joint operation involved SOG Sopore, 52 Rashtriya Rifles, CRPF 177 and 179 Battalions under Police Station Tarzoo. No arrests were made at the Sopore site.
In a separate operation in Pulwama, two men were apprehended during a Search and Destroy Operation in Yarwan forest on the night of August 24. Latif Ahmed Deedad and Aijaz Ahmed Bajad were caught with a pistol, 12 rounds and a hand grenade. Police said both suspects are in custody. A search in the forest area continues.
Indian Opinion Analysis
Greater Kashmir's two reports both stick to neutral, fact-led police briefings: the Sopore recovery in an abandoned house is led with the AK-47 cache, the Pulwama operation leads with the arrest of two named suspects and a smaller haul. Neither report attributes any political or security-policy framing. The uniformity of the straight-report style means the coverage offers no competing narratives. The next step to watch is the ongoing search in Pulwama's Yarwan forest area, which police have not declared closed.
