Srinagar: In his immediate reaction to the killing of two teachers in a Srinagar School Director General of Police (DGP) Dilbagh Singh after visiting the school on Thursday said that killing of unarmed civilians in Srinagar is a move to damage and attack the age-old traditional communal harmony in Kashmir and police has already got some clues about previous killings and will also probe the fresh incident too. He, however, was quick to add that the killers will be nabbed very soon.
Talking to reporters outside the Government Boys Higher Secondary School Sangam, Eidgah, Srinagar, the DGP said “killing of innocent civilians reflects frustration and barbarism. This is an attempt to defame local Muslims of Kashmir. Killing innocent civilians including teachers is a move to attack and damage the ages-old tradition of ommunal harmony and brotherhood in Kashmir” he said. He said killing innocents is a conspiracy to “target local ethos and values” which will be defeated by the police and people collectively. He said that police have got some clues and leads about the killers in previous cases and that the fresh case will be probed too. “I talked to staff members of the school and they are in total shock over losing two colleagues. Police will nab the killers very soon,” he said. He said TRF is responsible for these killings and it is front group of all militants organizations like Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) and Hizbul Mujahideen. “There is a pattern as they want to terrorise the minority community”, he said.
