Man found with sharp weapon at Jammu hotel, nabbed
Jammu: A man was arrested from a hotel with a sharp-edged weapon during a check in Jammu City on Wednesday, an officer said.
A heightened vigil has been on in the Union Territory as the annual Amarnath Yatra goes underway, and the hotel raid was part of it.
“As part of enhanced security arrangements in the wake of the Amarnath Yatra, police have been conducting intensified checking operations across hotels, lodges, and vulnerable spots falling under their jurisdiction,” a police officer said.
The man, Gourav Dogra, was arrested in a raid at Hotel Grand Inn in Jewel, when he was found with the weapon with no convincing explanation for it, he said.
Dogra was immediately taken into custody and was booked at Nowabad Police Station, the officer added.
