Security forces recovered Pakistani currency notes and a handwritten slip containing several suspected Pakistani mobile phone numbers during a search operation in Jammu and Kashmir’s Poonch district on Thursday, officials said.
The recovery was made during an area domination and search operation conducted by a Road Opening Party (ROP) of the 118 Territorial Army near Bhattaduriyan along National Highway-144A in the Mendhar sector.
During the operation, troops seized a cache of Pakistani currency notes along with a handwritten slip carrying multiple mobile phone numbers believed to be linked to Pakistan. The recovered material has been taken into custody for detailed examination by the concerned security agencies.
Officials said the discovery has triggered an investigation to determine the origin of the recovered items and examine whether they have any connection with cross-border networks or other security-related activities.
Security agencies are currently analysing the seized documents and exploring all possible angles as part of the ongoing probe. Further investigation is underway, and officials have not ruled out any possibility at this stage.
