SRINAGAR: Police on Monday carried out surprise inspections of hospital lockers in Srinagar and Pulwama as part of heightened vigilance following the November 10 Delhi blast and the recent seizure of weapons linked to a “white collar” terror module.
A police spokesperson said the checks in Srinagar were conducted in coordination with medical officers at district hospitals, private hospitals, medical colleges, PHCs and other health facilities. Similar inspections were held across Pulwama district.
The intensified scrutiny follows the November 8 recovery of an AK rifle and other ammunition from a doctor's locker at Government Medical College, Anantnag, raising concerns about misuse of hospital spaces.
