Three freedom fighters died in gun battles with Indian occupation soldiers and a villager was beaten to death in the latest bloodshed on Friday in occupied Kashmir, officials said.
Occupation troops shot dead three freedom fighters in two gun battles in the northern district of Kupwara, occupation army spokesman Vijay Batra said.
Their deaths came after Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh told a UN Summit in New York on Thursday that India had faced incursions in occupied Kashmir for years. In other violence, suspected freedom fighters beat to death a villager in Rajouri district after torturing him by sticking burning cigarettes into his skin, police said. "We are ascertaining why he was killed," a police spokesman said. No group has claimed responsibility for the killing.
