| House owner mislead forces: IGP | | | Early Times Report
SRINAGAR, Jan 13: A senior police officer on Thursday accused a house owner of misleading the security forces which led to the killing of a policeman and wounding of three soldiers during an operation against militants in Jammu and Kashmir's Kulgam district.
Constable Rohit Chhib of the elite counter insurgency unit of the police and Pakistani militant Babar Bhai of the Jaish-e-eMohammad (JeM) were killed and three soldiers and two civilians were wounded in the gunfight in Pariwan village on Wednesday evening.
"The owner and his family members where the terrorist was hiding deliberately misled the search team by saying that no terrorist was hiding in their house which led to the collateral damage," Inspector General of Police Kashmir Vijay Kumar told reporters in Kulgam.
"Therefore action under terrorism law will be taken against them," he said.
"So far 14 terrorists have been neutralized this year out of which seven are foreigners including one killed at LOC (Line of Control) in Kupwara," he said.
Earlier, Kumar and senior officers visited the encounter site and the Special Operation Group camp at Nillow Kulgam where he interacted with the police, Army and CRPF personnel and also reviewed the security situation.
Kumar paid rich tributes to the policeman killed in the line of duty. |
