Jaish terrorist’s body found in Doda, M4 rifle found: J&K Police

The body of a Jaish-e-Muhammad (JeM) terrorist was found in upper Doda district of the Chenab Valley, the Jammu and Kashmir Police said on Saturday (September 12, 2026).

A police spokesman said the police’s Special Operations Group (SOG), the army’s Rashtriya Rifles (RR) and the CRPF “recovered the remains of the Pakistani terrorist Jaish-e-Mohammed”.

Police said the terrorist was neutralized earlier in a joint operation. “An M4 night-action rifle was also recovered,” police said.

The Jammu and Kashmir Police has stepped up control over the area and patrolling in the upper reaches of the Chenab Valley. The move came as a result of the tactics that the terrorists changed in 2020. They would use the top to hide and attack security forces in the Jammu region.
