Jammu and Kashmir Police on Thursday issued a lookout notice for three people who were allegedly involved in raising pro-Pakistan slogans in Jammu on February 11.

Pointing out that these people had raised ‘anti-national slogans’ near Government Gandhi Memorial Science College on the Canal Road, Senior Superintendent of Police Tejinder Singh said that some local people had taken the photographs of protesters on their mobile phones.
