Police on Saturday conducted searches at 15 locations across the Sopore sub district of Jammu and Kashmir in connection with a case registered under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act against the banned organisation Jamaat-e-Islami (JeI).
Police said the searches were conducted in connection with FIR registered in 2025 at Police Station Sopore under Sections 10 and 13 of the UAPA Act.
The search operations were carried out at more than 15 locations including Jamia Qadeem, Naseem Bagh, Krankshivan, Tarzoo, Amargarh, Warpora, Bomai, Boitingoo and other areas of Sopore.
The searches were conducted after obtaining proper search warrants from the designated UAPA Court and were carried out in accordance with due legal procedure in the presence of Executive Magistrates and independent witnesses, police said.
“During the searches, incriminating material including literature linked with the banned organisation was seized and taken into custody for further investigation and examination,” they said, adding further investigation in the case is in progress.
Police said the action forms part of the continued efforts of Sopore Police to identify and take lawful action against individuals involved in activities linked with banned organisations and anti-national networks.
