In a daring attack on a CRPF naka party, an unidentified group of terrorists on Saturday killed three jawans while two others received bullet injuries in Ahad Bab area of Sopore in North Kashmir’s Baramulla district around 5.35 pm when these jawans were standing guard in the area.
Ground reports claimed, the group of terrorists had laid an ambush and was observing the movement of CRPF jawans before targeting them. Soon after the attack took place, the entire area was cordoned off to track down the footprints of the terrorists behind the attack.
However, the terrorists vanished from the deserted streets or given shelter by their sympathisers in the area.
The martyred CRPF jawans were identified as head constable Rajeev Sharma from Bihar, constable CB Bhakare from Maharashtra and constable Satyapal Singh Parmar from Gujarat. The injured were identified as constable/driver Javid Ahmed Amin and head constable Biswajit Ghosh.
