Srinagar
\nIn a broad daylight shooting, a woman was killed and another injured in south Kashmir\u2019s Tral subdistrict on Sunday.<\/p>\n
The police accused militant group Jaish-e-Mohammad\u2019s 3-foot-tall local militant commander Noor Mohammad Bhat for masterminding the attack on the two women.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe initial investigation hints at Jaish commander Noor Mohammad Bhat masterminding the attack on the two women. We are trying to ascertain the reasons for the attack,\u201d said Superintendent of Police, Awantipora, Mohammad Zahid.<\/p>\n
The police said militants barged into the house of Mohammad Shafi Wagey in Seer Jagir, Tral, some 50 km from Srinagar, and fired at the women present there.<\/p>\n
\u201cAmong them, 18-year old Yasmeena of Khonmoh was killed and Rubeena, wife of Mohammad Shafi Wagay, was injured. She was shifted to the sub-district hospital in Tral and later referred to Srinagar hospital for further treatment,\u201d a police spokesman said.<\/p>\n
Sources said an unidentified man entered the house and started talking to Rubeena, while her relative Yasmeena was sitting nearby.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe militant who was not armed at that time asked Rubeena about some family business issues. The man left and in no time returned to tell Rubeena that someone wanted to talk to her on phone. When she refused, the militant opened indiscriminate firing, killing Yasmeena and wounding Rubeena,\u201d a source said.<\/p>\n
Immediately after the attack, a search operation was launched to nab the militants.<\/p>\n
There has been no militant killing in the village in the recent past. However, a few days ago, forces had allegedly ransacked the house of local Hizbul Mujahideen commander in Seer Jagir. On October 18, a Special Police Officer was shot dead by a militant at his home in Gutroo, Tral.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
