Three Held After Hand Grenade Found in Gurdaspur Colony

Authorities in Gurdaspur have taken three men into custody following the discovery of a hand grenade in April near Geeta Colony. The incident prompted swift police action, with officers registering an FIR under UAPA and explosive laws. Teams carried out extensive searches at the site and collected vital clues about the sequence of events leading to the grenade’s presence. During interrogation, it emerged that the suspects were allegedly receiving directions from an overseas handler who coordinated their movements. One suspect’s house yielded another grenade during a raid, raising concerns about a larger network operating in the region. Police have intensified efforts to map out local connections and are actively trying to identify the foreign mastermind. Senior officials emphasized that such incidents will not be tolerated and that the force remains fully dedicated to protecting public safety across Punjab.
