The hideout was underground and big enough to accommodate around four people, police officials said.

The security forces recovered one AK-47 rifle with four magazines, one disposable rocket launcher, one pistol and magazine, two rocket-propelled grenades (RPGs), ammunition, a marked map of Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK), a khaki police uniform, rucksacks and letterheads of an alleged militant organisation.
