Kashmir: Three Protestors Killed in Police Firing


Rediff

Srinagar, Aug 12: Three protesters were killed and five injured in police firing at Bandipora in Kashmir on Tuesday morning, according to official sources.

Curfew had been imposed in Kashmir on Monday after senior Hurriyat Conference Sheikh Abdul Aziz and three other protestors were killed in police firing.

They were killed during a march to protest the 'economic blockade' of the valley over the Amarnath land row.

Concerned over the escalating violence in the state, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has convened an all-party meeting on Wednesday at 10 am. Further details are awaited.
