Besides the narcotics, arms and ammunition including two pistols, four pistol Magazines, 55 pistol rounds, four hand grenades and ten detonators were also recovered from their possession, he said.

 “The duo was working in close tandem with PAK-based militant handlers”, he said, adding, “they were involved in drug trade and supply of weapons to militants in Valley.”
