Sources said, the two VDGs were blindfolded, abducted and then killed by the terrorists in the upper reaches of Kuntwara. Kashmir Tigers, an offshoot of Jaish-e-Mohammad terror outfit has claimed responsibility of the killings.
The outfit has shared a photograph of the two dead VDGs with a letter written in Urdu language.
However, Good Morning Kashmir can’t independently vouch for the veracity of the claims made.
In the letter purportedly written on the letter head of Kashmir Tiger, a warning has been issued to the people to desist from joining village defence groups.
