The National Investigation Agency conducted searches at 19 locations across Punjab in connection with the terror grenade attack on a temple in Amritsar in March this year. During the searches carried out yesterday in the border districts of Amritsar, Gurdaspur and Batala, the NIA teams seized several incriminating materials, including mobiles and digital devices.
The Agency, in a statement, said that terrorists, backed by foreign-based handlers, had hurled a grenade at Thakur Dwara Sanatan Temple, Sher Shah Road, Amritsar. It said that during the investigation, it was found that the attack was carried out by the accused, Gursidak Singh and Vishal Gill. The deceased Gursidak Singh was in contact with foreign-based handlers, who recruited India-based individuals and conspired to spread terror among the people by providing grenades and funds. The NIA said that it is continuing with its action against operatives of various terror modules threatening the security and sovereignty of the country.
