The arrested terror associates have been identified as Shezaan Gulzar Beigh from Gadhikhal Chersoo and Waseem-ul-Rehman Sheikh from Midoora Awantipora. Incriminating materials, including ammunition, have been recovered from both the arrested persons.
The police said the arrested terror associates have been in touch with Pakistani terror commanders through various social media platforms. One of the arrested terror associates had visited Pakistan and met some terrorist commanders there.
