Civilian killed in militant firing at Sopore; Stop use of mosques by ultras: SDG CRPF

Srinagar, Jul 2 (UNI) Rejecting allegations that a civilian was killed by security forces after he was brought down from his car at Sopore, Special Director General (SDG) CRPF, Jammu and Kashmir Zone, Zulfiqar Hasan on Thursday said he lost his life in a firing by militants from a mosque.
The allegations that the CRPF took out the civilian Bashir Ahmad Dar, a resident of HMT, Srinagar from his car and shot him dead on Wednesday is untrue, Mr Hasan told reporters on the sideline of a wreath laying ceremony of CRPF Head Constable (HC) Deep Chand at STC Humhama.
He said a CRPF party was on a routine patrolling when militants hiding in a mosque fired indiscriminately with automatic weapons. It was a pre-planned attack, he said, adding four personnel were injured. Later, Chand succumbed. During the search of the mosque about 60 empty rounds were found.
