HELD SRINAGAR: The Indian Army opened fire on a group of stone-throwing protesters on Friday, killing one youth and injuring a**ther in Indian-held Kashmir, police said.
The demonstrators had gathered in the town of Beerwah after senior separatist leaders called for a strike against the Indian rule. Soldiers opened fire after mistaking a fire*****er for a grenade explosion, the police said. "Someone among these protesters ... hurled a fire*****er towards the army men.
“Because of the bang the army men thought a grenade was hurled and they retaliated," the statement said. Authorities have imposed a curfew in parts of the main city of Srinagar where separatists had called for a march to the ****** of a UN military observer group to protest against the recent civilian killings and arrest of dozens of political activists.
