A monetary reward has been placed on the head of a local militant responsible for the murder of a Kashmiri pandit in Shopian by the Jammu and Kashmir Police. Police have named the militant as Mohd Latief Lone.

Vijay Kumar, the additional director general of police in Kashmir, proposed a reward on Thursday for anyone with information on the militant responsible for the October death of a Kashmiri Pandit in South Kashmir's Shopian area.

Recent Attacks In Jammu & Kashmir

In August, a Kashmiri Pandit was shot dead and his brother injured after militants opened fire at them in the Shopian. The deceased was identified as Sunil Kumar and his injured brother as Pintu Kumar.

While India celebrated its 75th Independence Day, terrorists threw a grenade at a house in Budgam, injuring a civilian identified as Karan Kumar Singh who was shifted to a Srinagar hospital.

Militants have stepped up attacks in the Kashmir valley targeting minorities and security personnel.

A policeman was killed in Nowhatta and a migrant labourer in Bandipora in August. Two grenade attacks took place in Budgam and Srinagar districts on August 15.
