JAMMU, Feb 7: The Ban Toll Plaza, Nagrota near Jammu encounter case in which three terrorists were killed is likely to be handed over to the National Investigating Agency (NIA).
Sources said on Friday that a policeman was also injured in the encounter that took place on January 31 after police intercepted a truck carrying the militants at a toll plaza at Nagrota on the Jammu-Srinagar National Highway. The truck was driven by Pulwama resident Sameer Dar, a cousin of Adil Dar. Adil was the suicide bomber in the Pulwama attack on February 14, 2019.
Three overground workers were arrested in the Nagrota case, and a large quantity of arms and ammunition seized from the slain terrorists.
