Ultras kill teacher, father in J&K

Twenty-nine year old school teacher Manzoor Ahmad Mir had retired to bed early on Friday night just to rise at the first light so that he could take the students on an excursion on Saturday. Litter did he know that the militants will snatch him from his students who were eagerly waiting for the day to go on a leisure trip. Four Lashkar-e-Tioba militants barged into his house and mercilessly killed him and his father Ghulam Rasool Mir in cold blood. 

Among the mourners was the small band of picnic-bound students who had come for the picnic sojourn. “We had to go to Gulmarg and Dal Lake today. But before we could go we heard that our sir has been killed”, said a primary class student in a broken Urdu.

This scenic village has slipped into shock after the murder of the school teacher and his father.
