Kashmir violence: Protesters snatch 70 police guns, build armoury

July 13, 2016 08:03

Security forces are bracing for the first Friday prayers after the killing of Hizbul Mujahideen terrorist Burhan Wani against the backdrop of growing evidence of a secessionist plot to raise an arsenal with arms snatched from security forces.

According to sources, a mob took away around 70 semi-automatic and automatic weapons of J-K police after storming a police station in Damhal Hanji Pora in Kulgam two days ago.

On Tuesday, two separate attempts were made with the purpose of snatching weapons from troops.
