Srinagar, Oct 9 (IBNS): Pakistan-based Jaish Mohammad militant outfit's Chief Operational Commander for Kashmir killed in an encounter with forces in Baramulla town of North JKashmir on Monday, police said.

According to reports, forces laid siege in Ladoora village of Rafiabad Baramulla after receiving inputs about movements of some militants including
JEM top commander.
