Punjab police busts terror module backed by Pak & Germany based group.4 nabbed

Chandigarh, Sep 22 (UNI) Punjab Police on Sunday busted a terrorist module of the revived Khalistan Zindabad Force (KZF), backed by a Pakistan and Germany-based terror group that was conspiring to unleash a series of terrorist strikes in Punjab and adjoining states, and seized a huge cache of arms, including five AK-47 rifles, pistols, satellite phones and hand grenades.
Given the international links and the ramifications of the conspiracy, Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh decided to hand over further investigations in the case to NIA, to ensure the entire conspiracy is fully and expeditiously unraveled.
With initial investigations revealing the use of drones to deliver terrorist weapons and communication hardware across the border, the Chief Minister also urged the Centre to direct the Indian Air Force (IAF) and Border Security Force (BSF) to launch necessary counter-measures, to check any further threat from drones to the border state of Punjab.
