The Jammu SSP said that police teams under the supervision of SP Headquarters Jammu, Ramnish Gupta, were constituted and after getting leads, by acquiring technical evidence and human intelligence, they picked up various suspects.

“During sustained interrogation, one of the suspects namely, Sukhdev Singh alias Makhan of Bari Brahmana, District Samba admitted to the commission of the crime and also disclosed the involvement of others who had provided the logistics support, and concealed the vehicles along with sharp-edged weapons and a pistol used in the offence.
