Pulwama, Nov 12: Police have booked three Pulwama youth for their alleged involvement in militancy.

The trio have been shifted to outside Kashmir jail under contentious Public Safety Act.

“All were arrested and booked in militancy recruitment case. They were recruiting young boys and also harbouring militants,” SSP Pulwama told KNT.
