In a massive multi-state crackdown in connection with cases relating to conspiracies and activities of the banned Babbar Khalsa International (BKI) and the Lawrence Bishnoi crime syndicate, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) on Thursday seized several illegal arms and ammunition, along with incriminating documents, digital devices and cash.
A total of 32 locations in Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh and Delhi as well as the Union territory of Chandigarh were raided by the central agency.
As per NIA officials, the seizures during the searches included two pistols, two magazines and ammunition, along with cash amounting to Rs 4.6 lakh, besides documents and digital devices.
The three cases on which NIA carried out searches today relate to the terror activities being carried out by the BKI, a banned terrorist organisation, and the terrorist-gangster networks operating in the country, the agency said.
The searches were part of the NIA's continuous crackdown on terror outfits and individual terrorists engaged in carrying out criminal and terrorist activities in India, as well as their support networks, it said.
