Police said that some locals including a Village Defence Committee member alleged a fresh incident of stone pelting in Magnar village.
They (locals) have alleged that some miscreants pelted stones on the tin-made rooftops of minority communities thus triggering panic among them, police added.
Confirming the incident, a senior police official said, “the matter was reported by some locals following which a police team was dispatched to the spot. We are enquiring the facts for further necessary action.”
Earlier during the intervening night of Jan 8-9, some unknown persons pelted stones on two houses in the village Bainch of Poonch district.
The security, however, has been beefed up in the twin villages.
