Meanwhile, two terrorists were neutralised by security forces during an encounter that took place in the wee hours on Friday in Jammu's Sunjwan area.
Two AK-47 rifles, arms and ammunition, satellite phones and some documents were recovered from them.
According to the police, the terrorists killed were planning a suicide attack in any area with heavily deployed security.
Notably, Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to Jammu's Samba is scheduled on Sunday (April 24), on the occasion of Panchayati Raj Diwas, to address the panchayats of the country from Palli, Jammu and Kashmir.
Jammu and Kashmir Director General of Police Dilbag Singh on Friday said that the killed terrorists could be a part of a "big conspiracy" to sabotage PM Modi's visit to the union territory.
He also stated, "The sudden launch of terrorists in the area and their immediate action for the task assigned makes it appear like a fresh infiltration, as no terrorism background was found." (ANI)
