Two long-time absconders arrested in Poonch
JAMMU, Nov 5 (PTI): Two criminals wanted in two separate cases were arrested after over a decade-long hunt in Jammu and Kashmir’s Poonch district, police said.
Burju, a resident of Chandimarh village, was booked in a case registered at police station Surankote in 2013 under section 436 of the Ranbir Penal Code, dealing with mischief by fire or explosive substance with intent to destroy a dwelling, a police spokesperson said.
Despite repeated efforts over the years, he said the accused had managed to remain underground but was finally arrested by a team of Surankote police station on Tuesday.
