The District Special Team (DST) of Tonk police arrested two individuals, Surendra Patwa and Surendra Mochi, after seizing 150 kg of ammonium nitrate concealed in sacks of urea fertiliser during a vehicle interception. This operation followed a tip-off and also led to the recovery of 200 cartridges and six bundles of safety fuse wire, totaling approximately 1,100 metres. Authorities are investigating the intended use of the explosive material, which may be linked to illegal activities such as mining. This incident underscores ongoing concerns about the trafficking of dangerous materials and its implications for regional security and public safety.
