In Jammu’s Sidhra area near NIA headquarters, Jammu Rural Police on December 21, 2025, seized a Chinese-made weapon-mountable telescope discovered by a six-year-old boy in a garbage dump in Asrarabad, prompting heightened security and SOG searches amid concerns over foreign-sourced arms infiltration. Concurrently, in Samba district’s Diani village, 24-year-old Tanvir Ahmad from Anantnag was detained the same day after a Pakistani (+92) phone number surfaced on his mobile, fueling probes into cross-border links. From an Indian strategic lens, these incidents on December 20-22 highlight Pakistan-China nexus threats in J&K border zones, underscoring vigilant enforcement to counter hybrid warfare tactics post-Pahalgam attack chargesheet, with no panic urged as inquiries deepen
