| Slain youth were militants: DIG North Kashmir | | 'Goshbugh encounter was not fake' | | ET Report
Baramulla, Sept 22: Refuting the family claims that Bilal Ahmed who some days before lost his life in an encounter with Army near Goshbug area of Pattan town, Deputy Inspector General of Police, North Kashmir, J.P.Singh today said that if Bilal was not a militant then why he was accompanying dreaded militant Muhammad Yaqoob during the time of shoot out. "Bilal was the friend of HM militant Muhammad Yaqoob. He used to help Yaqoob for carrying weapons from one place to another. The fact is that it was his intimacy with Yaqoob that he became prey to militancy," Singh said. He said Bilal had joined militant ranks and when we called his brother Hilal Ahmed to inquire about Bilal, he mislead police by claiming that he had gone to visit his relatives. "The fact is that Bilal was missing from Sep 9 and was active along with slain militant Muhammad Yaqoob. It is baseless that encounter was fake. Bilal was a militant and both he and his friend fired upon Security personnel before they were shot dead by army personnel near Goshbug area of North Kashmir's Pattan town," he said |
