Day after the Rajouri terror attack, an explosion in the same area left a child dead and at least four other people injured on Monday. The explosion occurred in Dangri village in the Rajouri district of Jammu and Kashmir. Earlier on Sunday evening, armed terrorists opened fire on three houses in the village killing four civilians and injuring six others.
Monday’s explosion which killed a minor and left four people injured was an IED blast, ADGP-Jammu Mukesh Singh was quoted to have said. The five injured were rushed to the hospital. One child succumbed to injuries while one more is critical. It occurred in the same area where multiple houses were targeted by armed men. Another suspected IED has been spotted by the police, ADGP Singh added.
“The (improvised explosive device) blast has taken place near the house of the first firing incident. Five people were injured. One child succumbed to injuries and another is critical,” Additional Director General of Police (ADGP), Jammu, Mukesh Singh said.
The IED blast happened in the house of one of the victims of Sunday’s attack. The house had several people including the deceased’s kin inside when the IED exploded between 9:00 and 9:30 am on Monday morning, eyewitnesses have said.
On Sunday, two armed terrorists opened fire at three houses just 50 metres from each other in upper Dangri village. Four civilians died while six more were injured. Two of the wounded had to be airlifted to Government Medical College Hospital in Jammu for further treatment. The police cordoned off the area and launched a hunt for the two terrorists.
Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha condemned the attack and assured that the people responsible will not be spared. Taking to Twitter, he wrote, “I strongly condemn the cowardly terror attack in Rajouri. I assure the people that those behind this despicable attack will not go unpunished. My thoughts and prayers are with the bereaved families.”
