On Tuesday, Islamist terrorists shot dead three civilians in three separate incidents in Srinagar. The first victim was 68 years old man Makhan Lal Bindroo who was shot at his pharmacy at Iqbal Park in Srinagar in Kashmir. Notably, he had refused to leave the valley during the height of militancy in Jammu & Kashmir during the 1990s, when Islamic terrorists had launched an ethnic cleansing drive against Hindus and Kashmiri Pandits. Another deceased was identified as Virendra Paswan, a native of Bhagalpur district of Bihar who was residing in Alamgari Bazar Zadibal. He was a street vendor by profession who used to sell bhelpuri at the Hawal area of Srinagar. The third victim was Mohd Shafi Lone, a resident of Naidkhai. He was killed by terrorists in the Shahgund area of Bandipore in North Kashmir.
