The police had earlier recovered a Glock pistol and 523 grams of heroin, following the disclosure of the co-accused Palwinder Singh aka Pala, who had attempted to fire at the police team and sustained injuries in the retaliatory action, he said.

The total seizure in the case includes a hand grenade, 606 grams of heroin and two pistols with magazines and live cartridges.

The preliminary investigations have revealed that both the accused were in direct contact with Happy Passian, acted on his directions after his return from Armenia and were planning targeted attacks in Punjab, the top cop said.
