    The terrorists took their service rifles before fleeing

    Patel, who was the general secretary of the Pulwama wing of the PDP last year, had since shifted to Congress. He was in his Scorpio when he came under attack. Afterwards, the terrorists fled with their service rifles. Security forces have cordoned off the area now. Police have registered a case in the murder of the Dangerpora Shadimarg resident and are probing the incident.

    Patel had said that political workers were 'quivering with fear'

    Last year, in an interview to NDTV, Patel had said that political workers are "quivering with fear." When asked whose writ runs in J&K, he had refused to answer. "I can tell you personally on the promise to not show it on the media. Showing it on the media will increase threat to my life," he had said.
