Jammu, August 20

Two days after a terror operative was arrested at the Jammu bus stand for carrying Rs 10 lakh in cash from New Delhi to the Union Territory, the State Investigation Agency (SIA) conducted raids at various locations in Poonch on Saturday. The money was meant to be used to fuel terror activities.

An official of the SIA said, “A team searched Jamia-Zia-Uloom Madrasa in Poonch and also the houses of those who managed the seminary. The racket had been providing funds to terror groups, like Lashkar-e-Toiba and Al-Badr.”

He informed that the information about the racket came to the fore after the arrest of Poonch resident Abdul Hameed Mir and Delhi-based garment trader Mohammad Yaseen. Both spilled the beans during interrogation.

Abdul Hameed Mir was arrested on August 18 carrying Rs 10 lakh that he got from Yaseen in Delhi for fuelling terrorism.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
