Security Forces prevented a major
incident of a vehicle-borne IED blast in the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir.
An improvised explosive device (IED) recovered from a santro car in Ayengund
area of Rajpora in South Kashmir’s Pulwama district was defused by the
personnel of the bomb disposal squad this morning. Police sources said that
after an intelligence input, a white coloured santro car was flagged by
security forces at a mobile vehicle check point but the driver of the vehicle
sped away prompting the security forces to fire few shots at the vehicle which
they found abandoned some distance away.
The security forces blasted the vehicle and subsequently
averted a major catastrophe that could have arisen out of the vehicle-borne IED
blast.
