| Official residence of DIET officer gutted in fire in Kashmir | | | Early Times Report
Srinagar, Nov 2: A mysterious Fire damaged official residence of a senior officer of District Institute of Education and Training (DIET) in south Kashmir district of Shopian early this morning.
A Fire and Emergency Service (F&ES) official said that fire broke out in single story of official residence of Deputy Chief Education Officer of DIET at Shopian in south Kashmir. He said fire tenders were immediately rushed to the spot and fire was brought under control.
However, the building suffered damage, he said adding the cause of fire was being ascertained. No one was injured in the incident.
About 25 educational institutions were gutted under similar mysterious fire incidents in the Kashmir valley during the past three month unrest which erupted after the killing of Hizbul Mujahideen (HM) commander Burhan Wani and two other militants in an encounter in Anantnag on July 8. Subsequent violence left 86 people dead and thousands injured in security force and police actions.
Since then all educational institutions are closed due to strike called by separatists, demanding right to self determination. However, police claimed to have identified 35 miscreants allegedly involved in setting on fire the school building. Police said 21 have been arrested while search for remaining was going on.
Police said there are reports that some of the accused have fled to Jammu and Chandigrah and teams will be sent there to arrest them.
