According to a senior NIA official, "The searches, conducted as part of the NIA probe in the case, led to the seizure of various items showing linkages between the terrorists and over ground workers. The investigators are now examining the seized material to unravel the entire conspiracy."

The terror attack took place on June 9 in the Pouni area of the Reasi district when terrorists opened fire on a bus carrying pilgrims from Shiv Khori to Katra, causing the vehicle to plunge into a gorge, as a sniper shot hit the driver of the bus.
