Terror trail from Kashmir to Faridabad: Massive arms recovery shocks investigators
In a major security breakthrough near the national capital, the Jammu and Kashmir Police, in coordination with Haryana Police, recovered 300 kilograms of RDX, an AK-47 rifle, and several rounds of ammunition from Faridabad.
The explosives seizure follows the arrest of Dr. Adil Ahmad Rather, a Kashmiri doctor, from Saharanpur, Uttar Pradesh, for allegedly putting up posters supporting the terror outfit Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) in Srinagar.
Terror trail leads to Faridabad
According to official sources, crucial information provided by Dr. Rather during interrogation led investigators to the Faridabad location, where the massive cache of explosives and arms was found.
The consignment was reportedly stored with another doctor, Mujahil Shakeel, who is now being investigated for potential links to the network.
Earlier, police recovered an AK-47 rifle and ammunition from Rather’s locker at the Government Medical College in Anantnag, deepening suspicion of a wider terror nexus involving educated professionals.
Cross-border coordination and ongoing probe
Officials confirmed that the recovery was made through a joint operation between the Jammu and Kashmir and Haryana Police, with the National Investigation Agency (NIA) likely to step in for further forensic analysis of the seized explosives.
Authorities are investigating how such a large quantity of RDX was transported undetected to the outskirts of Delhi and whether it was meant for an attack in the national capital region.
Background: Arrest in Srinagar poster case
The chain of events began when Srinagar police registered a case after posters promoting JeM appeared across the city. CCTV footage identified Dr. Rather as the suspect behind the posters.
After tracking him to Saharanpur, J&K Police arrested him last week, leading to a series of high-level interrogations and the subsequent recovery in Faridabad.
Investigators say the case underscores a worrying trend — the radicalization of highly educated individuals, including professionals in the medical field, being recruited by terror outfits for logistical and propaganda roles.
Authorities have not ruled out further arrests as the investigation expands into possible cross-state terror networks.

Pakistan either seems to be on the self destruct mode by continuing to perpetrate the terror activities through the proxies despite the clear message of consequencies of the terror modules are out of their control.
Indian intelligence seems to be on roll……I salute them…..noose is tightening on all criminals i.e. M* *86 family of processors.
