Stone-pelters threaten stern action against scootie riding girls | Warn businessmen to keep shops shut 'till war is over' | | Early Times Report Srinagar, July 31: The self-styled Stone-Pelters Association, which recently defied the relaxation call given by separatist leadership and subsequently forced a shutdown here, has threatened to burn alive the girls found riding Scooties in restive Kashmir. The gang has pasted posters in the City center areas here near highly fortified Police Station Kothi Bagh. The poster with slogan "Yeh Kashmir Hamara Hai, Is Ka Faislah Hum Karangay", starts with warning for some shops, hotels and banks in Poloview and Residency Road localities to "remain shut and that they would be given no further warning but action would be taken against them." "This is to inform that all shops, vendors, and all business establishments whosoever works in the Valley please cooperate with us, don't open any shop till the end of this fight. And please follow the following points…We request all girls please don't use Scooty, if we saw any girl who ride Scooty, we will burn the Scooty as well as the girl," reads the poster from Sangbaaz(Stone-Pelters) Association Jammu and Kashmir, a copy of which lies with Early Times. "After every prayer, we request all Masjid Intizaamiyas please use slogans and Tarnanee in your respective Masjids," the poster reads. "There is no one who will guide us for the right path, we request all Muslims please pray and do duo in your prayer for Kashmir Valley," the poster said adding "We request all private transporters, please cooperate with us." Incidentally, as per the witnesses, the posters had popped up in areas like Poloview and Residency Road areas, which are under strict surveillance of the hi-tech CCTV cameras installed by the Jammu and Kashmir Police. "This is really unfortunate that such threat calls are coming to us in the area which is guarded by police and security forces from all sides," said a shopkeeper. The traders said scores of such posters had surfaced in the area and that police subsequently removed them. In the ongoing unrest, which erupted with the killing of Hizbul Mujahideen commander Burhan Muzaffar Wani on July 8, numerous posters have surfaced cautioning people to uphold the protest program. Apart from others, militant outfits like Hizbul Mujahideen and Lashkar-e-Taiba have been issuing statements directing the people about the "dos and don'ts" for the unrest. A police official said the matter was being investigated. "We are looking into who must have pasted such posters," the official told Early Times. |
