Two Kasmiris have been killed by Indian security forces in Anantnag district of Jammu and Kashmir, in an alleged encounter.
"It was a specific operation and in a swift action both the terrorists involved in several cases of civilian atrocities and attacks on policemen were eliminated," Inspector General of Police, Kashmir Range, S P Pani said.
According to PTI, Altaf Kachru was “one of the oldest Hizbul Mujahideen militants operating in the Kashmir Valley was killed in the operation”, and “The second militant was yet to be identified”.
With a contradiction in official story, the ‘encounter’ appears suspicious.
According to IG S P Pani, “both the terrorists involved in several cases of civilian atrocities”. If that is the case then how come police could not identify the second militant?
