LG J&K orders inquiry in the recent alleged Hyderpora Gunfight

The recent tweet of LG Jammu and Kashmir states that:

A magisterial inquiry by an officer of ADM rank has been ordered in the Hyderpora encounter. Govt will take suitable action as soon as the report is submitted in a time-bound manner.JK admin reiterates the commitment of protecting the lives of innocent civilians&it will ensure there is no injustice.

Businessman Altaf Bhat and dental surgeon Mudasir Gul were killed in an allegedly anti-terrorist operation on a building complex in Hyderpora. Police initially claimed they were shot dead by terrorists, but later said they may have been killed in the crossfire.

The police said both men were “terror associates” – a charge that provoked a furious reaction from family members and critics of the Jammu and Kashmir administration.

One of those killed was Amir Magray, whose father Abdul Latief Magray killed a terrorist with a stone in 2005 and had received an Indian Army citation.

Meanwhile, family members have been protesting for the return of the dead bodies of the deceased.
