Kashmir Counter Intelligence Detains Doctor, Wife for Misusing Authority and Influencing Youth
In a significant security operation, the Counter Intelligence Kashmir (CIK) detained a doctor and his wife on Tuesday, alleging misuse of their professional position to radicalise youth in the region. Coordinated raids were conducted simultaneously across Srinagar, Kulgam, and Anantnag districts, highlighting the gravity of the investigation.
Details of the Operation
Officials reported that the raids were planned based on intelligence inputs pointing to the couple’s involvement in influencing young individuals towards extremist ideologies. The operation, described as “coordinated and precise,” aimed to prevent any further radicalisation and curb the spread of subversive activities in the Valley.
Authorities seized electronic devices, documents, and other materials believed to be related to the alleged activities. Investigators are currently analyzing the seized items to determine the extent of the network and individuals influenced by the couple.
Background and Allegations
The couple, whose identities are being withheld due to ongoing investigation protocols, are accused of misusing their professional and social influence to manipulate vulnerable youth, potentially grooming them for anti-national or extremist purposes.
CIK officials stated that the operation reflects a proactive approach to counter radicalisation in sensitive areas, particularly in districts historically prone to such incidents.
Regional Security Context
The Valley has witnessed several attempts at radicalisation over the past years, prompting security agencies to remain vigilant and proactive. Experts note that targeting influential individuals who can sway youth is a critical strategy in preventing the spread of extremist ideologies.
“Detaining individuals who exploit trust and position to radicalise youth is crucial to maintaining regional stability,” said a security analyst.
Next Steps
The detained doctor and his wife are being questioned under relevant security and anti-radicalisation laws, and authorities have indicated that further detentions or investigations may follow based on the ongoing inquiry.
