Suspected militants attacked police personnel guarding PDP leader Abdul Gaffar Sofi in Jammu and Kashmir on Friday. As per reports, this was the latest attempt of weapon snatching in the state.
Incidents of weapon snatching have increased in Kashmir valley, especially south Kashmir after Burhaan Wani’s killing in July 2016. As militant recruitment has been increasing, reports suggest that there is a shortfall of weaponry among the militant ranks.
