Srinagar, Oct 8 (IBNS): The Army on Saturday said Pakistani markings were found on seized arms and ammunition from four militants in Naugam sector of North Kashmir on Thursday, confirming the complicity of the neighboring country in abetting terrorism.

“Pakistan Ordinance Factory markings on the hand grenades and the UBGL Grenades recovered from the militants confirms Pakistan complicity in abetting and equipping terrorism,” an Army Spokesman in Srinagar said.

"Pakistani markings are also seen on medicines and eatable items seized by the force," he said.

Army Thursday shot dead four militants in Naugam sector in Kupwara area of North Kashmir.

Highly inflammable material, which include six plastic explosive slabs, six bottles of petroleum jelly,  six bottles of inflammable liquid and six lighters were also seized .

“Similar inflammable material was recovered at Poonch Incident of 11 Sep and Uri Incident of 18 Sep16. This shows the sinister design of Pakistan to aid terrorists in causing maximum destruction,” he said.
