Azad Jammu and Kashmir Police have sealed the head office of the banned Joint Awami Action Committee. The action was taken on June 7, 2026. The AJK government said it is taking vigorous action against groups trying to create chaos in the state. These groups act under the guise of action committees claiming to fight for public rights.
During the raid, police recovered weapons from the office. They found a sub-machine gun, a rifle, and a pistol. The presence of weapons suggests the group may have been planning violent activities. Despite a large number of people gathered outside the head office, no protests or sloganeering were seen. The crowd remained calm. This was a notable development. In the past, such actions by the government have often led to public demonstrations. This time, the people did not resist. Experts said such legal actions are necessary. They are needed for the implementation of state writ, rule of law, and democracy. The government has not yet released further details about the raid or any arrests.
The Joint Awami Action Committee is a banned organisation. The AJK government has accused it of trying to create chaos. Officials say the group uses the cover of fighting for public rights. But its real aim, according to the government, is to destabilise the region. The seizure of weapons supports this claim. The raid was carried out without any violence. Police acted professionally. The crowd outside did not interfere. This shows that the public may not support the banned group. The government has been increasing its actions against such organisations. It wants to maintain peace and order in AJK. The timing of the raid is also significant. It comes as security forces are also conducting operations in other parts of the country against banned groups.
Radio Pakistan reported the news. The report did not mention any arrests. It also did not say whether any leaders of the group had been detained. The investigation is likely to continue. Police will examine the recovered weapons. They will also look for any links to other militant groups. The AJK government has promised to continue such actions. It says the rule of law must be upheld. No one is above the law. The sealing of the office sends a clear message.
A banned group’s office is now sealed. Weapons have been found. The government is taking action.
