Gangster claims attack on police station, cops deny

Foreign-based gangster Happy Passia has claimed in a social media post that the Kila Lal Singh police station was attacked using a rocket launcher on Monday morning. Senior police officials have, however, refuted the claim.

SSP Suhail Qasim Mir said he received a call around 3 am that there was an attack on the police station. “I immediately sent a team led by a DSP-rank officer to probe the incident. However, the team informed me that nothing had happened. I ordered a comprehensive combing operation, but nothing incriminating was found. Still, we have got an FIR registered at the same police station,” he said.

He confirmed that Passia had posted on a social media site that his men had launched a strike.
