Foreign-based gangster Happy Passia has claimed in a social media post that the Kila Lal Singh police station was attacked with a rocket launcher early Monday morning.

Senior police officers have denied his claim.

SSP Suhail Qasim Mir said he received a call around 3 a.m. that the police station had come under attack. “I immediately sent a team led by a DSP-rank officer to probe the incident. However, the team informed me that nothing had happened. I then ordered a comprehensive combing operation, but still we found nothing. Just to remain on the safe side, we have got an FIR registered at the same police station,” he said.
