RS PURA (JAMMU), Nov 25: Rakesh Giri -- a contract killer in police records -- and whom police shot dead Sunday last in an "encounter" near Satyam Resorts here lived in a one-room house in ward No 4 at RS Pura.
The doors and windows of the room are broken, its walls are in a bad state of repair and its roof is leaking. In the name of property, Giri's family has a faulty ceiling fan, few old and torn bedsheets, a stove and some utensils. The family lives from hand to mouth.
After his killing in encounter, police claimed he was a supari killer and committed murders in lieu of big amounts of money.
Had it been so, he would have at least made his and his family's living conditions better.
Police also linked Nagar Singh alias Nago with the incident, alleging that Giri had taken supari from him to kill ex-MLC Depinder Kour and other witnesses in the Amandeep murder case.

Jammu, Nov 25: Union Home Minister P Chidambaram's prompt response to J&K Chief Minister Omar Abdullah's request on granting general amnesty to Kashmiri militants in POK through its much talked about Rehabilitation Policy is both appreciable as well as surprising. Its approval by the state cabinet is being followed by other necessary steps to give a practical shape to its modalities on ground. The mandatory preparations and preparedness on part of India as well as J&K government is all understood but still the core question remains wrapped in layers of confusion- Will Pakistan agree on the lines India and Omar led government wants things to happen under this hyped policy…?

They mint easy money. They are run and controlled by mercenaries, separatists, communalists and persons with Left leanings. They do not consider India as a nation state.
