SRINAGAR, May 5 (KNS): Hundreds attended the funeral of a nomadic Gujjar woman on Monday, a day after she died following an alleged assault in Srinagar’s Nishat area.
Police said the woman, in her early 30s, was attacked late Sunday while camped with her family during their seasonal migration. She was taken to hospital but succumbed to her injuries. A case has been registered, and one person is being questioned.
“This wasn’t just violence—it was a reflection of deep bias,” said a community elder.
Police have stepped up security and promised a swift investigation. (KNS)
