The National Investigation Agency (NIA) searched several places in the Rajouri district of Jammu and Kashmir on Sunday in connection with the terrorist attack in Reasi that left nine people dead, including a toddler.&nbsp;

Terrorists had opened fire on a bus transporting pilgrims from Shiv Khori to Katra on June 9 in the Pouni region of the Reasi district, forcing the vehicle to crash.

On June 15, the NIA assumed control of the case under orders from the Ministry of Home Affairs.

The raids in Rajouri were carried out based on information from Hakam Khan, also known as Hakin Din, a major suspect apprehended on June 19 in the terror incident.&nbsp;

In its preliminary investigation, the NIA revealed that Din supposedly gave the terrorists shelter, food, and logistical help.

Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Reasi Mohita Sharma said that Din not only provided shelter to the assailants but also enabled their movements.

"The arrested person is a prime militant associate who helped the terrorists in the execution of the attack. Further interrogation and investigation of the case is going on," she said.

Din disclosed&nbsp;that three terrorists were staying at his home throughout, and added that the terrorists gave him ₹6,000.

Following a spate of terror incidents in June in Jammu and Kashmir, Union Home Minister Amit Shah and Prime Minister Narendra Modi assessed the security situation in the Union territory.&nbsp;

The government is "seriously" concerned about the recent terror incidents, according to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, and no effort would be spared to get to the bottom of this investigation.

"The enemies of peace and humanity are not happy with the development in Jammu and Kashmir. There were some terror attacks recently... the government has taken it seriously. The Home Minister, with the J&amp;K Administration, has reviewed the situation," PM Modi said.
