Militants shot dead a civilian in south Kashmir’s Anantnag district on Monday evening.
“Terrorists fired upon a civilian namely Deepu, a resident of Udhampur district, who was working at an amusement park near Janglaat Mandi in Anantnag. He was taken to a hospital where he succumbed to his injuries,” the police said.
The police said a case was registered. “An investigation is going on.”
This is the second killing of a civilian in Kashmir this year. In February, a Kashmiri Pandit, who was working as a bank guard, was shot dead by militants in south Kashmir’s Pulwama.
