A possible terror attack in Assam has been staved off by a tracker dog of the Indian Army who helped security forces this week in discovering a huge cache of arms and ammunition from a jungle. The dog, a three-year-old female black Labrador named Jaari, led forces to the exact location deep within the Panbari Forest Reserve in Assam where militants had hidden a stock of explosives and weapons. Officials said the cache of weapons had been buried under the soil and Jaari led security forces all the way to the spot by sniffing the ground.
