Srinagar: J&K cop killed by terrorists, daughter injured
A cop and his daughter were shot at by terrorists in Srinagar on Tuesday.

A Jammu and Kashmir Police cop was killed on Tuesday when terrorists opened fire at him in Srinagar's Soura area. The police officer's seven-year-old daughter was also injured in the attack but is reportedly out of danger now. "Terrorists fired upon one policeman, Saifullah Qadri, in Soura (Anchar) area... His daughter also got injured," the Kashmir Zone Police earlier said in a tweet.

When the terrorists fired at Qadri, his daughter clung to him sustaining bullet injuries on her arm. They both were shifted to the hospital where the police officer succumbed to critical injuries. "The daughter of the slain policeman is being treated at the hospital. The area has been surrounded for searches," news agency IANS quoted an official as saying.

Statement
Police will nab the culprits soon: IGP Vijay Kumar

Qadri and his daughter were reportedly targeted outside their residence in the Anchar area of Srinagar. Expressing grief over the incident, Inspector General of Police (Kashmir Range) Vijay Kumar reportedly said police teams have been dispatched to the surrounding areas to nab the terrorists. "We will soon get them," Kumar was quoted as saying by India TV.

Third such incident this month

The killing of the J&K Police cop is the latest in a spate of similar terrorist activities in the union territory. On May 13, Jammu and Kashmir Police constable Riyaz Ahmad Thoker was shot dead by a terrorist at his Pulwama residence. On May 7, a police personnel was shot at Aiwa Bridge near the Anchar locality in Srinagar.
