J-K CM condemns Kulgam attack

Srinagar (J-K) [India], May 01 : Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti has strongly condemned the Kulgam cash van attack, in which five policemen and two bank employees were killed.

In a statement, the Chief Minister said the killing reflects the dangerous criminalisation turn the society was taking.

The Chief Minister also expressed grief over the death of a civilian in a grenade attack in the Khanyar area of Srinagar.

Mehbooba said she had been warning of the ill-effects of violence time and again and appealed the civil society to rise to the occasion to make the future of the younger generation peaceful.

The militants, earlier in the day, opened fire at a cash delivery van of a bank in Jammu and Kashmir's Kulgam district, killing five police constables and two bank officials.
