Huge cache of ammunitions recovered from Jharkhand

East Singhbhum (Jharkhand), Mar 16 (ANI): Police recovered a huge cache of ammunitions during a raid at the office of a stone-crushing operation in Jharkhand's East Singhbhum district.

Following a tip-off, police raided the place and recovered explosives amassed at the office.

3,245 detonators, power gel - explosive raw materials - (about 125 gram), and two 50-meter-long rolls of telephone wires were recovered.

"A case has been filed against the owner of the stone-crushing machine under the Explosive Substance Act," said Dinesh Orawa, Deputy Superintendent of Police.

Machines used for mining require explosives for blowing up boulders but the office had amassed more explosives than the required amount. (ANI)
