A Kashmiri Pandit organisation today termed the alleged rape and murder of two women in Shopian as "shameful" and asked the Jammu and Kashmir government to apprehend and punish the culprits.
"The latest shameful incident has once again put the honour of all Kashmiri women at stake as authorities and leaders of civil society, who are supposed to protect and defend the dignity have been maligning it themselves," a spokesman of Kashmiri Pandit Sangarash Samiti said after a meeting of its executive council here today.
"We believe no Kashmiri woman is now safe until and unless the state acts tough against perpetrators of Shopian rapes and murders, and all such horrific acts in the recent past be it in the hands of security forces or by militants," he said.
