| [DAWN] Two suspected murderous Moslems were killed in an ambush by the Indian army and police in Awantipora, Pulwama district in the India-held Kashmire on Sunday, reports said. The suspects were identified as Rayees Ahmad Wani and Farooq Ahmad Hurra, affiliated with the bully boy Hizbul Mujahideen group operating in the India-held Kashmire. Hurra and Wani were residents of Shopian and Pulwama districts and had joined the bully boy group in April and June of 2016, respectively. Reports said that a joint party of Special Operations Group of Jammu and Kashmire Police and 55 Rashtriya Rifles ambushed the southern part of Pulwama district after receiving a tip-off about two suspected murderous Moslems travelling in a car. As soon as the car reached the barricade, "murderous Moslems opened fire, which was retaliated", an Indian official told Srinagar-based media, adding, "in the ensuing shootout, both were killed." Witnesses said that police and paramilitary forces resorted to teargas shells to disperse people who had gathered near the Awantipora cop shoppe to demand the bodies of the slain suspected bully boys. The protesters retaliated by throwing stones, triggering festivities between the two sides. The bodies were later handed over to the next of the kin of the slain men. |
