Anantnag: Aiming to detect Militants who might be hiding in wall cavities or false ceilings, the Army will now use ‘through-the-wall’ radar imaging during counter-insurgency operations in the Valley.A few such radar systems have already been imported by the Army, official sources said, explaining that the technology would help in more precise and effective anti-military operations. It would enable security forces to get the pinpointed location of terrorists hiding inside homes in congested areas and also avoid civilian casualties. On more than one occasion, the Army and the Special Operations Group of the Jammu and Kashmir Police have had to return without engaging with militants despite specific intelligence inputs.Local informers later conveyed that the terrorists were hiding in a specially created false ceiling or an underground cavity in the same house that had been raided, said a senior officer involved in one such anti-militancy drive.
