Srinagar, Apr 2 (PTI) National Conference leader and Lok Sabha member Aga Syed Ruhullah Mehdi on Thursday demanded a time-bound probe into the allegations of a fake encounter in Ganderbal in which a man was gunned down.
The Army on Wednesday said a local terrorist was killed in an overnight encounter in Arahama in the Valley’s Ganderbal district.
“The family of Rashid Ahmad Mughal, killed in the Ganderbal encounter, says he was an innocent civilian with zero links to militancy. His own clothes were changed. The Army refuses to reveal his identity,” the Srinagar MP took to X.
He said the allegations levelled by the family were “gravely serious” and the police’s silence is “unacceptable”.
“We demand a time-bound and independent probe,” he added. PTI MIJ APL
