According to authorities, a migrant labourer from Bihar was shot dead by terrorists in Jammu and Kashmir’s Bandipora district on Thursday night.
The worker, named Mohd Amrez, was employed at Soadnara in Bandipora and came from Madhepura in Bihar.
Mohd Amrez was shot and sent immediately to the hospital, where he passed away from his wounds.
The Kashmir Zone police tweeted, “During intervening night, terrorists fired upon & injured one migrant labourer Mohd Amrez, r/o Madhepura, Besarh, Bihar at Soadnara Sumbal, Bandipora. He was shifted to hospital for treatment where he succumbed”.
The brother of the deceased was quoted by ANI as saying, “Around 12.20 am my brother woke me up & said that a firing has started. He (deceased) wasn’t around, we thought he went to the toilet. We went to check, saw him lying in a pool of blood & contacted security personnel. He was brought to Hajin & later referred but he died.”
This occurs the day after an attack on an army camp in Rajouri, Jammu and Kashmir, which resulted in the deaths of four soldiers and the injury of another.
