NEW DELHI: Special Cell NDR on Saturday arrested 9 terrorists working at the behest of Pak ISI-Mumbai Underworld network. According to Delhi Police Special Cell, they were tasked to attack vital installations and security personnel in Delhi.Arms and explosives have been recovered from their possession.The arrests come days after Delhi Police announced a major overhaul of its counter-terrorism framework in the wake of heightened security concerns following Operation Sindoor. Earlier this week, police commissioner Satish Golchha ordered the creation of dedicated Counter-Terror Units (CTUs) in every police station across the capital to strengthen grassroots intelligence gathering and identify emerging threats. The units have been tasked with monitoring vulnerable locations, tracking radicalised individuals, verifying transient populations, and maintaining surveillance on terror-linked suspects, gangsters and hawala operators.Delhi Police said the move was prompted by intelligence inputs indicating that terror handlers operating from abroad are increasingly using encrypted online platforms, social media and local sleeper networks to recruit, radicalise and guide operatives in India.
