Chandigarh: The Punjab Police have successfully dismantled a terror module allegedly supported by Pakistan's ISI, leading to the arrest of three individuals and the seizure of two hand grenades and a Glock pistol, as reported by a senior police official on Monday.

According to Director General of Police Gaurav Yadav, the grenades are marked with POF (Pakistan Ordnance Factory), suggesting a connection to cross-border activities.
