Lamenting the growing trend of “targeted assassinations”, PDP youth president Waheed-ur-Rehman Parra today expressed serious concern over the sliding trend which has had serious ramifications for the overall peace in the Valley.
“If we look at past few months, the trend of targetkilling is on rise. It can have serious repercussions if not looked intoseriously,” Parra said in a statement.
While demanding swift and judicious probe into the recentkilling of Zahoor in south Kashmir’s Pulwama district , Parra said, “Suchunabated violence will rupture the social fabric of the state and therefore shouldbe condemned unequivocally by every section of the society.”
He further added that, “people don’t feel safe and itbecomes dubious when there comes name of “unknown gunmen” aftercivilian killings. Administration should take serious note of the matter andmake all details public to win over the faith of the people,” Parra said and demanded speedy justice into thekilling.
He expressed sympathies with the bereaved family.
