Mohsin Ahmad (24) sustained bullet injuries in his leg after he was shot at by the soldier of a patrolling party at Azadgunj in Baramulla district, they said. A defence spokesman said the incident took place when Ahmad tried to snatch the soldier's weapon. "The individual was shot in the legs to thwart the weapon snatching attempt," he said.
