Mehbooba Mufti condemns killing of PDP worker in south Kashmir
Srinagar, May 20 (UNI) Condemning the killing of a Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) worker by unidentified gunmen in south Kashmir district of Kulgam, former J&K chief minister Mehbooba Mufti on Monday said that it is ironic that such mindless violence is justified in the name of Islam in the month of Ramazan.
“Heartbreaking. Party workers in Kashmir put their neck on the line & have to suffer for their beliefs. Ironic that such mindless violence is justified in the name of Islam in the month of Ramzan. Shame on these cowards who call themselves Muslims,” Ms Mehbooba, who is the President of PDP, wrote on micro-blogging site twitter.
A 69-year-old PDP worker, identified as Mohammad Ismail Bhat, who was shot at by unidentified gunmen at Devsar Kulgam in south Kashmir late last night, succumbed to his injuries at S K Institute of Medical Sciences (SKIMS), Srinagar on Monday morning.
