The killing of a non local took place a day after a senior police officer said all militants involved in target killings except one have been neutralised in different encounters.
“Except LeT’s terrorist Basit Dar of Kulgam who would be either arrested or neutralised in encounter at the earliest, all terrorists involved in target killings have been neutralised in different encounters,” Additional Director General of Police Vijay Kumar had said after the killing of top commander Lateef Rather and two of his associates.
