Jammu and Kashmir police have rushed to the spot to investigate and search operations are being carried out to catch the terrorists.
The terrorists want to spread panic by targeting the police of Jammu and Kashmir. Earlier this month, on Eid, three policemen who were not on active duty were killed by terrorists in three separate attacks.
Speaking to MyNation, DGP SP Vaid said that the terrorists are attacking the police like petty thieves when they are not on duty. If they came out and attacked the jawans, they would be capable of retaliation.
In fact, the terrorist organisations have been disturbed by the continuous success of security forces in Operation All Out. This is why the Jammu-Kashmir police are being targeted. This year, around 35 policemen have lost their lives in terror attacks.
Deobandi jihadist group Jaish-e-Mohammed has taken responsibility of the terror attack in Shopian.
