Indian police put a body of their colleague who is killed in the shootouts in Srinagar, India-controlled Kashmir, August 1. A paramilitary trooper and a policeman were killed, while as another paramilitary trooper was critically wounded in two separate shootouts Saturday in India-controlled Kashmir, police said.
The shootouts took place between troopers and suspected militants in Regal chowk and Batmaloo areas of Srinagar city, the summer capital of India- controlled Kashmir.
"One of our soldiers was shot dead and another one left critically injured when suspected militants fired upon them from a point-blank range in Regal chowk market. The injured has been rushed to the hospital. Another shootout has taken place in Batmaloo, wherein a local police constable has been killed," said Prabakar Triphati, spokesperson of central reserve police force (CRPF) in Srinagar.
A man cries beside the body of a policeman who is killed in the shootouts in Srinagar, India-controlled Kashmir, August 1. A paramilitary trooper and a policeman were killed, while as another paramilitary trooper was critically wounded in two separate shootouts Saturday in India-controlled Kashmir, police said.
The attack has created panic among the shopkeepers and pedestrians. Soon after the shootout, the entire areas were cordoned by police to nab the assailants.
So far, no group has claimed responsibility of the attacks.
Militants occasionally target police and paramilitary troopers in the region, that otherwise witness gun-fighting intermittently.
