RDX recoverd in J&K

At least 75 kg of RDX was recovered from Jammu and Kashmir’s Kishtwar district, police said on Friday.

“This is one of the biggest recoveries of explosives in Jammu and Kashmir,” a Jammu and Kashmir Police spokesman said.

The spokesperson said the recovery was made on a tip that the militants had stocked a huge quantity of ammunition in the mountainous area of Chatroo, about 250 km from here.

About 250 g of RDX is sufficient to blow up a four-storey concrete building, a police source said.
