Tral: Unidentified persons ‘attempted’ to desecrate a shrine and a mosque in the Dadsara area of Tral in south Kashmir’s Pulwama district on the intervening night of Thursday and Friday, with the Jammu and Kashmir Police registering a case on Friday.
According to the police, “some miscreants attempted to disrespect a shrine and a mosque in Dadsara in Tral by damaging windowpanes and also tried to displace the holy Quran in an inappropriate manner.”
"In this regard, the police have registered a case under relevant sections of the law," a police spokesperson said.
"Police suspect that this has been done by miscreants to foment trouble and disturb peace and order,” he said.
"Citizens can be assured that the Police are on the hunt and will nab these evildoers and also the people behind them. They will be dealt with heavily under the law. Besides being put behind bars, all others who have instigated or facilitated such criminals with the motive of disturbing peace by misusing the highly revered symbols of the almighty will also face consequences. The full force of the entire government shall be used to detect and punish the perpetrators," he added.
