300 kg RDX Recovered; Room Rented Three Months Ago
The 14 bags recovered from the room contained nearly 300 kg of RDX, an AK-47 rifle, cartridges, and chemicals. According to information, the accused had rented the room about three months earlier. During the raid, around 10–12 police vehicles reached the spot. The accused doctor is now in custody, and the module is being investigated across four states—Jammu & Kashmir, Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, and Gujarat.
