IED training for Assam police
Special Correspondent
NEW DELHI: The Army on Saturday completed the second training programme for the Assam police in handling improvised explosive devices, according to Army sources here.With insurgent groups resorting to IEDs, the training would help the police handle disposal of unexploded devices independently without seeking army assistance.
Twenty personnel including seven sub-inspectors and 11 head constables were trained in counter-IED operations by an engineer regiment under the Army’s Red Horns Division. The regiment carried out several IED disposal and detection operations in Assam.
The police personnel were taught about the components of the IED, its initiation mechanism, searching techniques, remotely controlled IEDs, letter parcel bombs, use of sniffer dogs and road opening procedures.
Earlier this year, the ‘Shatrujeet’ engineer regiment trained one batch of the Assam police.
