‘Encounter fake’
PRESS TRUST OF INDIA
New Delhi, Jan 24: Union Minister and former Chief Minister Farooq Abdullah Tuesday said the Pathribal incident was a “fake encounter” and said all those responsible for it should be “chargesheeted” for killing innocent people.
“Yes, it was a fake encounter. All those who are responsible for having killed innocent people must be chargesheeted whether they are in the Army or they are civilians. You can't kill innocent people and say that I have got a safety certificate,” Farooq Abdullah told reporters in Delhi.
He was asked if the Army should allow the prosecution of its officers in the wake of the Supreme Court observations.
“Whether you are the highest or the lowest, you have to pay price for your actions,” he said. Pertinently, Dr Abdullah was the Chief Minister of the state when the fake encounter took place.
