Marmat (Doda), Sep. 8 (ANI): A section commander of Hizbul Mujahedeen (HM) has killed a fresh recruit of the outfit at Beri Mandool in Marmat in upper reaches of Doda district of Jammu and Kashmir suspecting him for having illicit relations with his wife.

Firdous was son of Ali Mohammad Jral, a resident of Thilroo, Magota.

Personnel of the Security Forces and police found his dead body from Beri Mandol in Marmat on Wednesday.

One AK-56 rifle, three magazines and 60 rounds were recovered from the possession of slain militant.

“My son joined militancy one-and-a-half month ago. His name was Firdous. Yesterday evening, he got killed in the firing. STF persons told me that he was killed by fellow ultras,” said Ali Mohammad on Thursday.

The incident has caused scare in Firdous’ native village.

“At present villagers are completely terrorized. They is harassment among the villagers as if they (ultras) are killing their own accomplices what can they do to others (villagers),” said Farid Ahmed, the village head.

Police alleged Waseem Ahmed to have carried out the killing.

“There is a clear reason they (militants) fight for money, they commit extortions of thousands of rupees from working class. Each and every member of the nearby villages is their victim. Second reason is the women. The immediate reason for this is that Ahmed alias Waseem suspected his wife Shehnaz to be having illicit relations with him (Firdous),” said Senior Superintendent of Police, Doda, Prabhat Singh.

He further shared that Waseem killed his first wife in a very inhuman manner. He (Ahmed) has attempted five murders before this. Waseem suspected that Firdous was having relations with his wife.

The official said that Firdous was trapped by calling him to meet and killed him. (ANI)
