Thousands turn up at Hizbul Mujahideen militant Burhan's funeral

It is very unfortunate that young lives were lost in clashes, ADGP (CID) of J&K Police told reporters.

Srinagar: Burhan’s funeral was attended by thousands of people. There was no deployment of security forces in Tral and adjoining areas to avoid a confrontation with the people coming to participate in the funeral.

“We have had a very difficult day today,” said ADGP (CID) of J&K Police S.M. Sahai while describing the situation “bad in certain segments”, “not critical” in areas like north Kashmir and under control in Srinagar.

“It is very unfortunate that young lives were lost in clashes,” Sahai told reporters.
The militants are trying to “superimpose their attacks” on public protests, he said, while informing that there was also a militant attack on District Police Lines in Pulwama which the security forces thwarted.
