Srinagar non-resident killed: Bihar-based 'Gol guppa' seller's family mourns his death
2021-10-17
[OneIndia] The parents of the 30-year-old-man who was rubbed out by a terrorist in Srinagar on Saturday are mourning the shocking death of their son.

The father of Arbind Kumar Sah said that he had gone to Srinagar three months ago. He was selling 'gol gappas' with the hope to earn enough money to improve the lives of his poverty-stricken family back home.

However,
death is not the end. There remains the litigation over the estate...
that dream of the Bihar man was shattered as he was killed by forces of Evil who showered bullets at him near his handcart outside a park in the Eidgah area of the city.

Eyewitnesses said a pistol-borne Death Eater stopped near Sah's vending cart and shot him from point-blank range, killing him on the spot. Sah would sell 'gol gappas' every evening to strollers who came to the park and had made a few friends among them.

"He was a hardworking man. He had dreams of getting his family out of poverty back in Bihar. But that dream has died today," a middle-aged resident who did not want to be named said.

"His business was brisk. He was a likeable man, maybe that's why he had good business. He would often talk about his folks and poverty in his hometown," the resident added.

In the last two weeks, a total of nine civilians, including two teachers and a prominent Kashmiri pandit, have been killed in the valley and five out of eight were Hindus which clearly indicates that the forces of Evil are targeting Hindus and outsiders.
