A joint team of Indian Army and police has apprehended two NDFB(S) terrorists in Kokrajhar and Chirang districts of Assam.

The team launched an operation in the thick, un-hospitable jungles of Kakulong in Chirang districts and found out a camp site being used by the NDFB (S).

While no terrorist of the group was in the site, a large number of items were recovered, indicating presence of terrorists not long ago. A rifle, some gun powder, clothes, sling shots, utensils and rations were recovered.

In Kokrajhar, the apprehended terrorist was identified as Janak Brahma, in possession of a Pistol and some ammunition.

In Chirang, a terrorist identified as Sobhaigo Mushahary was apprehended. This terrorist had been in close contact with top NDFB(S) leaders and was providing them crucial logistics support and early warning of troops' movement.

Both these terrorists were involved in extortion activities and other subversive activities.
