A complete shutdown was observed in Tral town of South Kashmir’s Pulwama district on Wednesday against the killing of two local militants in a gun battle with the government forces yesterday. Reports said that all the shops and business establishments remained closed in main town Tral.
The locals are protested against the killing of two Hizb militants Abid Khan and Shiraz Dar who were killed in an encounter in Handoora village on Tuesday.
Hundreds of people participated in the funeral procession of two slain militants while various separatist leaders visited the bereaved families in Handoora and Woverigund Tral. Jamat-e-Islami spokesperson Advocate Zahid Ali and Hurriyat G leader Pir Saifullah addressed the mourners at Handoora.
Meanwhile, the chairman of United Jihad Council (UJC) and Hizb supreme commander Syed Salahuddin paid rich tributes to the slain militants. According to a statement issued to CNS, chairing a special meeting of Hizb Command Council, Salahuddin said, “The martyrs of Tral, Abid Ahmed Khan and Shiraz Ahmed Dar have laid down their lives for Islam and the freedom of their motherland”.
Salahuddin, according to a spokesman of the Hizb, said, “Both the freedom fighters fought bravely with the armed forces and embraced martyrdom. The martyrdom of these freedom fighters amply demonstrates the fact that every Mujahid of Hizb is committed to Kashmir cause and is ready to sacrifice their precious lives to achieve the noble cause.”
