SRINAGAR: Two migrant workers were injured after they were shot at on Saturday evening by terrorists in south Kashmir’s Anantnag district, police said on Saturday. This is the second attack on migrant workers in the district this month.

Police did not identify the injured workers but said that they were attacked in the RakhMomin area.

“Terrorists fired upon & injured two outside labourers in Rakh-momin area of Anantnag. Both the injured are being shifted to hospital for treatment. Area being cordoned off. Further details shall follow,” J&K police tweeted.

On November 3, two migrants working in a private school at Bondialgam in Anantnag were shot at by terrorists. Terror outfit TRF, which police say is an off shoot of Lashkar-e-taiba, had claimed responsibi­lity.

On October 15, terrorists had gunned down Kashmir Pandit Puran Krishan Bhat, a fruitgrowe­r by profession, at his residence in Shopian. This year, six migrants have been killed in the Valley.
