SRINAGAR: The National Conference supremo Dr. Farooq Abdullah on Sunday has brushed aside involvement of Kashmiris in recent civilian killings which also includes non local labourers in Kashmir and termed these attacks as part of a conspiracy to defame Kashmiris.
“These killings are unfortunate and done under a conspiracy. Kashmiris are not involved in these killings. It is an attempt to defame Kashmiris,” Abdullah told reporters here.
The Lok Sabha member from Srinagar said these killings were an attempt to disturb the peaceful atmosphere in the valley.
Before that, seven civilians, including four from minority communities, were killed by terrorists in Kashmir, triggering fear among the people in the Valley and criticism of the security apparatus by political parties.
