Police in Jamui’s Sikandra area uncovered an illegal mini‑gun manufacturing unit hidden in a forest beside a canal and detained three suspects.
Police from the Sikandra police station in Jamui district conducted a raid on a forested stretch along a canal near Mircha‑Pathakchak and uncovered an illegal mini‑gun manufacturing workshop. The covert operation was reportedly running within the dense foliage, away from public view.
During the raid, law‑enforcement officials seized equipment used for assembling small‑calibre firearms and arrested three individuals alleged to be involved in the production. The suspects were taken into custody for further interrogation.
Investigators said preliminary inquiries point to a possible link between the workshop and a broader weapon‑supply network associated with Munger. The connection is being examined to determine whether the factory was part of a larger illicit arms chain.
Authorities emphasized that the discovery underscores the ongoing challenge of curbing illegal arms production in the region and warned that similar operations will be pursued aggressively.
