The police has said that the attack was carried out by three militants of the militant outfit ‘Kashmir Tigers.’
Pain and sadness spread across the entire village of Yachama soon after the dead body of a local police constable, Rameez Ahmed Baba, reached there. Thousands of people have gathered there, since morning.
Rameez’s family, consisted of his parents, three sisters and a younger brother. He was the lone bread earner in the family. His younger brothers are unemployed and his father is an aged man.
Talking to The Kashmiriyat, a local from the area said that the incident was a major blow to the family. He said that his parents had raised Rameez in poverty. He had been serving in the Jammu Kashmir Police Department for two years. “It is really sad that the lone bread earner is no more,” the local said.
“The Zewan attack was the fourth. How cheap is the blood of our soldiers that they put them in the local bus. What bulletproof vehicles do they have?buy orlistat online https://www.conci.com/wp-content/themes/twentyfifteen/inc/new/orlistat.html no prescription ” the anguished local said.
“The everyday bloodshed has separated so many sisters from their brothers. The government should take a decision so that the bloodshed stops,” another local added.
Rameez’s uncle told The Kashmiriyat that three of Rameez’s sisters were unmarried. Due to poor financial situation, it would be difficult for the family to hold weddings for the three sisters. “We urge the government to provide alternate source of employment to the members of his family,” he said.
