He said Bhat came with the grenade to Jammu Thursday morning after he left Kulgam the previous night. He had brought the grenade in a tiffin box. He was fleeing after the attack when he was arrested by policemen at Nagrota on the outskirts of the city, Sinha said. The boy was identified on the basis of eyewitness accounts and recordings of CCTV cameras installed in the area. He was travelling in a Tavera at the time of his arrest. All police checkpoints were alerted about a man wearing a blue jacket and carrying a red rucksack.
