PULWAMA: According to police, a guy was detained in the Pulwama area of Jammu & Kashmir for allegedly inciting the public and supporting terrorist actions online. An arrest of a social media user who was inciting the public and supporting terrorist actions was made by police in Pulwama as part of their impressive response to anti-national acts, according to a police spokeswoman. A guy who was uploading videos and images of terrorists killed in the Kokernag encounter while operating a false social media account under the name “Pulwama News” has come to light, the official added. In the seven-day shootout in the Gadore woodland region of Kokernag in the Anantnag district of south Kashmir, two terrorists were killed along with four security forces members, including a colonel, a major, and a deputy superintendent of police. The spokesperson claimed that “this account was created to promote the terrorists’ activities and sow fear among the populace, posing a serious threat to the unity, integrity, and sovereignty of the country.” As a result, he said, a case was filed and an investigation was started. Ashiq Ahmed Khan, a resident of Niloora Khan Mohalla, was detained for engaging in such illegal acts during the course of the investigation. According to the spokeswoman, the situation is still being investigated. The spokesperson advised the general public to be on guard and work with the police to apprehend the criminals who threaten peace and tranquilly. We stand together in the battle against terrorism, he continued, and we’ll keep working to ensure that all citizens have a peaceful, secure, and prosperous future.
