JAMMU/KASHMIR,DEC 24 : A retired senior police officer of the Jammu and Kashmir police was shot dead by terrorists in the state’s Baramulla district on Sunday when he was offering prayers in a mosque.

According to the police, Mohammad Shafi Mir, a retired Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP), was offering prayers in a local mosque in the city’s Gantamulla Bala area when the terrorists opened fire on him.

After the incident, the J&K police cordoned off the area and launched an investigation into the case.

“Terrorists fired upon Shri Mohd Shafi, a retired police officer at Gantmulla, Sheeri Baramulla, while praying Azan in the mosque and succumbed to injuries. (The) area has been cordoned off. Further details awaited,” the Kashmir Zone police said in a post on the X.

Last month, a police inspector of the state police was grievously injured after being fired upon by terrorists near the Eidgah mosque of Srinagar. Following the incident, he was admitted to a nearby hospital.

The incident happened when Inspector Masroor Ahmad Wani was playing cricket with local boys at the Eidgah ground of Srinagar.
