Security agencies on alert after CRPF vehicle with JK number stolen in Delhi

New Delhi: After an SUV with a ‘JK’ number plate belonging to the CRPF was stolen outside a camp of armed forces late last month, security agencies have flashed an alert.

The vehicle, with a ”Police” sticker, was stolen by at least three people sources revealed referring to CCTV footage of the incident.

The alert issued by security agencies, especially to agencies and forces based in Kashmir, said the vehicle could be misused for a possible fidayeen attack.

Intelligence inputs have already stated that “militants can use a vehicle laden with explosives to attack a camp (of security forces/agencies) in the run up to Republic Day celebrations…”, it said.

The CRPF, too, issued an alert and asked all its units in Jammu and Kashmir and north India to be on heightened vigil and take extra precautionary measures.

“No unidentified vehicle should be allowed to enter in the camp without proper identification and anti-sabotage checks,” stated the alert, issued by the CRPF headquarters in Delhi.
