Nine people, including forensic experts, revenue officials, crime-scene photographers, an SIA inspector, and a tailor, were killed in a devastating explosion at the Nowgam police station in Srinagar. The blast occurred during forensic sampling of “unstable and sensitive” explosive material that had been seized earlier from Faridabad and stored in the station’s open yard. J&K DGP Nalin Prabhat confirmed the explosion was accidental and not an act of terror. Dozens were injured as authorities launched a detailed probe into handling procedures for seized explosives.
