The Supreme Court has refused to order a judicial inquiry into the terrorist attack in Pahalgam. Along with this, a bench of Justices Suryakant and NK Singh also reprimanded the petitioner.
The court said that this is a sensitive time. The whole country is united and stands against terrorism. Do you want to bring the morale of the security force? Do not bring such petitions in court.
Justice Suryakant said, take responsibility responsibly before filing such PILs. You also have some duty towards the country. You are asking the retired judge to investigate. When did we become the experts of the investigation (terrorist attack). Our job is only to pronounce the verdict.
However, the court said that the High Court can go today on the issue related to the safety of the student. After this, one of the three petitioners withdrew the petition.
Who filed the petition
The PIL was filed by Mohammad Junaid, a resident of Kashmir. Fatesh Kumar Sahu and Vicky Kumar are also named among the petitioners. It has also been said in the petition that the Center and the Government of Jammu and Kashmir should ensure the safety of tourists in Kashmir.
In Pahalgam, terrorists shot and shot religion
There was a terrorist attack on 22 April in Bisaran Valley in Pahalgam, Kashmir. 26 tourists were killed in it. It also included a tourist from Nepal. The terrorists shot the tourists by asking religion. The attack was earlier taken responsibility by The Resistance Front (TRF), although it was later retracted.
The Pahalgam attack is investigating the case National Investigation Agency (NIA). The NIA registered a case in Jammu on 27 April in the case.
Eyewitness had told what happened on 22 April…
Santosh Jagdale of Maharashtra was also killed in the terrorist attack. Jagdale went to visit Pahalgam with his wife and daughter. There was also a female relative. The terrorists released the three women.
Jagdale’s daughter Asavari had told the news agency PTI- we were a group of five people. It also included my parents. We were in the Bisaran Valley near Pahalgam, when we heard the sound of firing. Saw some people wearing police clothes are firing bullets.
Asavari said, ‘We all hid in a nearby tent. 6-7 other people also arrived. We all lay down on the ground to avoid firing, first it felt that it was an encounter between terrorists and security personnel.
Then a terrorist came to our tent. He asked my father to come out. Also used some wrong words for PM Modi. Then he asked my father to read an Islamic verse (maybe Kalma). When they could not read, they were shot three bullets, one on the head, one of the ear and in a back. My uncle was next to me. The terrorists shot him four to five bullets.
