A BSF constable on vacation was martyred and his three family members were wounded late last evening when terrorists stormed his home and fired upon them at Hajin area in north Kashmir’s Bandipora district.
Director General of Jammu and Kashmir Police, S P Vaid said, Rameez Parrey, the slain jawan, belonged to the 73rd battalion of the BSF. Parrey served the BSF for six years. He said, after forcing their way into the house in Parrey Mohalla, terrorists fired indiscriminately at the family. Jawan died on the spot and three family members suffered gunshot injuries.
DG (J&K) SP Vaid termed the incident as barbaric and inhumane and said the guilty would be punished.
