Srinagar/UNI: Security forces on Saturday averted a major tragedy by detecting and defusing an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) in Jammu and Kashmir's Srinagar city.

Official sources said that an IED was detected near Government quarters, which is just a stone's throw away from Chanapora police post in uptown Srinagar on Saturday.

'A Bomb Disposal Squad (BDS) was immediately called,' they said, adding that the IED, which was placed inside a box, was later defused without causing any damage or loss to life.

They said the area has been cordoned off and investigation has been initiated to identity and nab the militants responsible for planting the IED.
