Jammu and Kashmir Director General of Police Dilbag Singh said on Sunday that a major terror attack was averted in Jammu with the discovery of another improvised explosive device.

Singh said the Jammu Police recovered another IED weighing around five-six kilograms and was recovered from a suspected Lashkar-e-Taiba operative who was tasked with targeting a crowded place.

Singh’s revelation came even as security agencies continued their probe into twin explosions inside an Indian Air Force  station at the Jammu airport which took place after midnight.
