The Story in Brief
The Jammu and Kashmir Police counter-intelligence wing carried out raids in five districts of the Kashmir Valley on Saturday as part of an investigation into terror-related activities, online misuse and radicalisation networks, officials said.
The searches in Kupwara, Baramulla, Anantnag, Shopian and Bandipora were linked to FIR number 03/2023 registered at Police Station CIK, Srinagar under Sections 505 and 153A of the Indian Penal Code, and Sections 13 and 18 of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act. Electronic devices and other incriminating material were seized and will be sent for forensic examination.
The Indian Opinion
Some will call this routine police work exaggerated, others a heavy-handed dragnet in Kashmir. Both miss the point. The FIR dates to 2023, suggesting a long investigation, and the focus on electronic devices points to online radicalisation rather than mass arrests. The real test is what forensic examination reveals, and whether charges are filed against named individuals.
