Srinagar: The Joint Resistance Leadership comprising Hurriyat (G) Chairman Syed Ali Shah Geelani, Hurriyat(M) Chairman Mirwaiz Molvi Umar Farooq and JKLF Chairman Yaseen Malik have called for total shut down today against the killing of a civilian in security force firing and two militants, including Lashker-e-Toiba (LeT) Chief Commander Abu Dujana, in an encounter in Pulwama in south Kashmir.
Dujana, a resident of Pakistan, and another militant were killed in an encounter in Pulwama, where a youth was killed while several others were injured when government forces allegedly opened fire and burst teargas shells to disperse demonstrators.

Meanwhile, mobile internet services of all cellular companies have been suspended across Kashmir valley as a precautionary measure in the wake of clashes which erupted at many places in the valley after the killings.
