After an encounter at Pulwama in the district of Sout Kashmir two armed militants have surrendered, as per official records.
Two AK-47 rifles were recovered from the militants after the gun battle took
place late Friday in Lelhar area.
The gunfight between terrorists and security forces began
after a cordon and search operation in the area was launched on the basis of
specific information about militant presence.
As the security forces zeroed in on the hideout, they came under a heavy volume
of fire that triggered the encounter.
"Both terrorists surrendered along with their AK-47 rifles before senior
officers of police and security forces. One terrorist who was injured in
encounter has been shifted to hospital for medical treatment," police
said.
