The Navi Mumbai police on Saturday detained three people after their movements were found to be suspicious and released them after questioning.
According to police officials, the trio were seen by some Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) personnel on the Gavan-Kopri road on the outskirts of Panvel in Navi Mumbai.
They were standing near a trailer and when the CISF personnel searched their belongings, one of them was found to have clothes designed in a pattern similar to military uniforms, after which the Panvel police were informed.
The trio were taken to the police station and questioned. But it was revealed that they were truck drivers from Poonch district in Jammu and Kashmir.
Their employer was called and he vouched for the trio, after which they were released.
Police sources said that the trailer truck had broken down and the trio were repairing it when the CISF personnel saw them.
Reports of ‘three suspects’ being arrested by the police started spreading far and wide, and were denied by the police. The Uran village, which has been in a state of tension for the last two days, was seen slowly returning to normalcy on Saturday, with commercial establishments doing business as usual and people roaming on the streets.
