Jammu, July 15 Security forces started searches in Jammu’s Akhnoor area on Monday after noticing movement of two suspects there.

After the presence of two suspects was reported, security forces started a CASO (Cordon & Search Operation) in Akhnoor.

Reports said that locals observed the movement of two suspects and they immediately called the police.

Security forces swiftly cordoned off the area and started a search operation.

“It is believed that both the suspects are armed. The suspects were seen by the locals close to an army installation. The area has been put on high alert,” official sources said.
