Protesters on Wednesday torched the house of a Peoples Democratic Party Member of Parliament Nazir Laway in south Kashmir. Nobody was present in the house when it was set ablaze by protesters in Chawalgam village of Kulgam district.

Police said the incident took place hours after security forces fired pellets at protesters shouting anti-government and pro-freedom slogans in the nearby Katrusoo village. Dozens of protesters were injured in the clash.

Violent protests returned on Wednesday after two days of relative peace in the Kashmir Valley that has been on the boil since the July 8 killing of Hizbul Mujahideen commander Burhan Wani.
