The reports state Ahmed had been studying journalism in Islamic University of Science and Technology.

'It was his fourth semester while recently he had rejected a government job,' his father Muhammad Sultan told the Kashmir Dispatch.

We are well off and are a part of fruit industry', he added. 'I failed to understand what prompted my son to join militant ranks when I was providing him every comfort of life.'

Interesting.... With Indian politicians comments about 98% Kashmiris supporting India.... And others comments about 70% voter turnout...

Either these pictures are fake... Either they are all ISI agents... Or either India is lying... Hmm

"Hundreds" out of 13 million people is pretty small minority. It's 0.1%

Its clear as it is stated in article. These are his relatives who has came to mourn his death, not to protest.

And his father himself is quoted telling ' we dont know why he joined militancy, he had a degree from university in an Indian state, had even got a job under government, their family is well of fruit farmers but this one little kid of his got radicalised and was killed by security people for the security of the rest of normal people of this Indian state.


This happened 5-6 days back and the state witnessed huge turnout in election , more than the percentage of any other Indian state.

The law abiding people of this Indian state have used its maximum of the voting rights provided by the Indian government under the constitution of India.
