In a major breakthrough, Amritsar Rural Police, in a joint operation with Faridkot Police, solves the grenade attack case at PS Bhindi Saida, leading to the arrest of six accused and the recovery of two pistols.

Preliminary investigation reveals that the module was backed by #Pakistan’s ISI. The accused were in contact with a Pak-based handler operating from abroad, who was directing terror activities in #Punjab.

On the intervening night of March 29–30, 2026, the accused retrieved hand grenades, conducted reconnaissance, and carried out the attack. The module had been radicalised and motivated to target police establishments, with promises of substantial financial rewards for executing the attack.

An FIR has been registered under relevant sections of the Explosive Substances Act, UAPA, BNS, and the Arms Act. Further investigation is underway to establish forward and backward linkages and to dismantle the entire network.

Punjab Police remains firmly committed to ensuring peace and harmony in the region.
