Nawakadal Killing Father challenges police

Father challenges police to prove subversive antecedents of Bashir

He was preparing for marriages of his two sisters: Father

Srinagar: Challenging police to prove that his son was involved in stone pelting at anytime, anywhere, Mohammad Shafi Bhat father of Bashir Ahmad the youth who got killed in Nawakadal firing incident on April 30 evening said he wants justice and not any blood money from the government.

Talking to KNS, Bhat said his son’s killing has shattered the entire family but he will muster courage to pursue his case till the culprits are brought to justice. “My son who was preparing for the marriage of his two sisters, was killed in a cold blooded murder in the evening,” Bhat told KNS in a feeble tone.

Bhat said his son was completely innocent and his antecedents can be verified from the locals who know him in the area. “You can ask about his background from anyone you like here and if it is proved that he was involved in stone pelting or in any kind of subversive activities, then I will never ask for anything,” Bhat claimed.

Bashir’s father said that his deceased son was completely busy with Pashmina weaving trade and had no time to roam here and there. “From work he would straightway come to his home and whenever he would go anywhere, he would ask the permission from his family,” he said, while pledging to pursue his son’s case till the security force personnel responsible for his killing are brought to justice. (KNS)
