Just days after the Baramulla attack in which three security personnel died, militants on Friday released a video of the assault on social media, which police dubbed as an attempt to glamorise militancy.
In the video purportedly shot by one the militants who was part of the attack, he is seen firing at the security forces, reported news agency GNS.
Responding to the video release, a spokesman of Jammu and Kashmir police took to Twitter in which he said that all the militants who were part of the attack were killed within 72 hours.
