The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has filed a supplementary chargesheet against four more accused in the grenade attack near the women’s police station in Sirsa, Haryana, in November 2025. The chargesheet was filed on Saturday before the NIA Special Court in Panchkula, PTI and ANI reported. No one was killed in the attack on November 25, 2025.

The four accused are Rajbir Singh alias Fouji, Ved Parkash alias Pamma, Jiwanjot Singh Grewal alias Jyoti and Chirag Thakral. The NIA alleges that Rajbir Singh was the India-based coordinator of a cross-border network who worked with handlers abroad to arrange the collection and movement of weapons, hand grenades and narcotics within India. They face charges including criminal conspiracy, attempt to murder and offences under the Explosive Substances Act and the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act.
