<description><![CDATA[Srinagar, Feb 11: On January 19, 1991 Khazir Muhammad Qazi witnessed the killing of his two sons, Muhammad Ameen Qazi and Bilal Ahmad Qazi, in his cycle shop at Magarmal Chowk here. They were killed by CRPF troopers who resorted to indiscriminate firing killing a dozen innocent people. Though the then IGP CRPF had ordered dismissal of the accused CRPF personnel describing their action injudicious, his decision was over-turned by a Delhi Court in 2006 which described the order of IGP as total non-application of mind and reinstated the CRPF personnel. Now 17 years down the line, the aged father is struggling for life in his home at Rambagh. He is suffering from a critical disease, whispers his grandson Aqib Qazi who was only a year-old when his father Muhammad Ameen Qazi was killed. Khazir Muhammad needs regular blood transfusion. But he remembers the day vividly when his two sons were killed. We were doing our routine work. Then firing started and everyone rushed for life. The CRPF troopers fired indiscriminately towards our shop, he said.   He says that a person hailing from Tangmarg rushed to his shop pleading for shelter. The person presumed that it would save him from CRPF firing but next I saw blood oozing from his shoulders. A bullet had struck him wounding him severely, he said. When the CRPF vehicles left the spot, people rushed towards the shop putting his two severely injured sons and other injured into a police vehicle but they died on the way. The vehicle couldnt move forward as firing was going on, he said. Qazi says many people died that day. Opposite to our shop there was shop run by a Sardar Ji. He too lost his son in the massacre, says Qazi.  As usual in 90s, thousands of people including pro-freedom politicians rushed to his home expressing solidarity with the family promising them help. Overwhelmed, the family refused any kind of support from the government. But then no one returned to see what happened to the family and an orphaned child.  Qazi never returned to the shop where he witnessed killing of his sons. Life changed for the family forever.  But in his falling health what perturbs Qazi is the future of his grandson to whom he has been a father all along.<br/><br/>1 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Srinagar, Feb 11: Two militants of Hizbul Mujahideen were killed by police, Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) and army in a joint operation at Palhalan Pattan in north Kashmirs Varmul district today. The police and troops cordoned the house of Abdul Khaliq at Palhalan Pattan in which the militants were hiding. Rejecting the surrender offer, the militants preferred to fight and engaged the soldiers in a gun-fight in which two militants were killed.  Police identified the killed militants as Zahoor Ahmad Ganie son of Ghulam Nabi Ganie of Chanderhama Pattan and Nazir Ahmad Parray of Ghousa Bugh. During the encounter, four houses were damaged completely by troops shelling. A private school also suffered damage.  Police said the duo was active for last six years, police said. After the cordon was lifted in the area, thousands of people took out a protest march and shouted pro-freedom, anti-army and anti-police slogans. The protestors were led by the activists of Tehreek-e-Hurriyat. Thousands later participated in the funeral prayers of the slain militants. Meanwhile, troops and police cordoned off the areas of Hari Gandoon Kangan and Beighpora and conducted searches. The troops, according to a local news agency CNS asked people to come out of their houses despite chilling weather conditions. Police and CRPF arrested a carpet-weaver Muhammad Afzal Sofi son of Ghulam Muhammad Sofi of Brar Bandipore from his house today. The family of Muhammad Afzal staged a sit-in outside the office of Deputy Commissioner Bandipore asking for the whereabouts of the detained person.<br/><br/>1 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Srinagar, Feb 11: Protests, shutdown and rallies marked the 24th martyrdom anniversary of the Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF) founder Maqbool Bhat on Monday, paralysing normal life across the Valley.  Shops and commercial establishments in all districts of the Valley remained closed following a strike call given by various pro-freedom parties to mark Bhats execution  by Government of India in New Delhis infamous Tihar Jail on this day in 1984 on charges of bank robbery and killing of a CID inspector of J&amp;K police.  Barring some private vehicles and three wheelers, traffic was off the roads. Government offices recorded thin attendance as employees could not make it due to the non-availability of transport. Pro-freedom parties including JKLF and Democratic Liberation Party held rallies to mark the day. Police detained around 20 activists of both the parties.  The JKLF activists, led by Advocate Bashir Ahmad Bhat, marched through Maisuma, Budshah Chowk, and MA road here, demanding the return of the mortal remains of Maqbool Bhat. The activists carried a memorandum urging the United Nations to force the Government of India to return Bhats mortal remains.    The DLP rally was led by its chairman, Hashim Qureshi.   People of Kashmir have been clamouring for Bhats remains for his decent burial since the day he was hanged and buried in the jail premises. A grave has been kept reserved for his burial in Srinagars Martyrs graveyard at Eidgah. Bhat was hanged on charges of murder and bank robbery, a claim strongly refuted by the people for whom he was the architect of Kashmirs freedom struggle.  Bhats hanging is believed to be a watershed in the history of Kashmir as hundreds of youth took to arms afterwards to fight Indias dominance in Kashmir. His sacrifice, people believe, infused a new sense of resolve and strength in the Kashmiri nation to fight the Indian rule.  At Maisuma and Gawkadal, people clashed with policemen who retaliated with tear smoke shells. A large contingent of police and troops of Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) were deployed in the city, particularly in its civil lines areas, to pre-empt any public protest. In Maqbool Bhats native village (Trehgam) in frontier Kupwara district, people observed complete strike, reports said. A team of Hurriyat Conference (M) led by its acting chairman, Maulana Abbas Ansari, visited Bhats family to express solidarity with them at a function organized on the occasion. According to a statement, the team included senior Hurriyat leaders, Shabir Ahmad Shah, Nayeem Ahmad Khan, Javed Ahmad Mir and Dr Ghulam Muhammad Hubi. The best way to pay tribute to Maqbool Bhat is to get united and take his mission to its logical end, they told the gathering.   Reports of strike have come from other districts of the Valley, including Islamabad, Shopian, Kulgam, Varmul, Budgam and Ganderbal.GK REPORTER, HARMEET SINGH, REPORTS FROM JAMMU:  Leaders of Hurriyat Conference (M) handed over a memorandum of demands to the UN officials at the office of United Nations Military Observers Group in India and Pakistan (UNMOGIP) after clashes with police on Monday, the martyrdom anniversary of JKLF founder Maqbool Bhat. The Hurriyat activists led by Hurriyat (M) spokesman Shahid-ul-Islam, and Rafiq-ul-Haq, took out a protest march from the party office at Shahidi Chowk this morning with a view to presenting a memorandum seeking UN intervention in the return of the mortal remains of Maqbool Bhat for burial in the valley.  But the police deployed around the UN office beat up the activists with bamboo clubs and arrested several Hurriyat workers. The arrested Hurriyat leaders, Narinder Singh Khalsa, Vijay Abrol, Abdul Gani, Davinder Singh, Aman Ullah Khan, were detained at Sanik Colony, Gandhi Nagar and other police stations of the city.  Anticipating the rally, police had erected barricades at various places. Senior leaders, Shahid-ul-Islam and Rafiq-ul-Haq, however, managed to reach the UN office, and hand over the memorandum to the UN officials.  Later in the evening, police ransacked the house of senior Hurriyat leader, Davinder Singh, at Bakshi Nagar and harassed his family. The detained activists had not been released till the reports last came in.<br/><br/>1 Vote(s) ]]></description>
