Kashmir : Mobs clash with police after Eid prayers
Srinagar, Jul 6 (IBNS) : Mobs pelted stones and police charged batons as clashes broke out in different parts of Kashmir on Wednesday after congregational Eid prayers.
Media reports said police used canes and lobbed teargas canisters near a mosque to disperse a large crowd shouting separatist slogans. Police said the violent crowd was throwing stones at them.
Reports quoted some eyewitnesses as saying that police and security forces stormed into the mosque and several people were injured in the crackdown.
There were clashes in Anantnag and several other places in the valley.
Most of the separatist leaders have been under house arrest and are not reportedly being allowed to offer Eid prayers.
