SRINAGAR; With a magisterial inquiry getting under way on Wednesday into the death of Farhat Ahmad Dar (21) at Nayidkhai village in northern Kashmir, allegedly in police firing on March 14, authorities in Bandipore district have acquired two important video clips.

The video clip in possession of Kashmir Informer shows the attacking men calling out to others loudly, commanding them to rain stones on the two police vehicles in the rear. As one group keeps shouting “Jeevay Jeevay Pakistan,” a youth in a striped sweater mounts one of the vehicles to celebrate ‘victory’. He is promptly followed by another youth, wearing a Pheran and blue jeans. The ascending crescendo of the slogan is silenced with a gunshot that brings down cheering Farhat Dar.

The video footage has been distorted to protect the identity of protesters.
