IN view of the massive jail break in Nepal during the 'Generation Z' protests, India's intelligence agencies have sounded alert suggesting that a sizeable number, among over 13,500 prisoners who escaped the prisons, are terror operatives, crime lords and mafias officials said on Wednesday.

They said that the police forces of the bordering states and the border guarding force SSB have alerted against possible attempts by such elements to enter India.

The officials said that according to intelligence inputs, among those attempting to cross over to the Indian side "are terror suspects linked to Pakistan-based outfits, drug traffickers, kidnappers, and contract killers active along Indo-Nepal borders".

Meanwhile, the Sashastra Seema Bal (SSB) has confirmed that the force has so far managed to block and detain 72 such jailbreak suspects.
