They kill PSOs (personal security officers), SPOs (special police officers). Why are you killing them? Kill those who robbed your country; those who robbed the whole wealth of Kashmir. Have you ever killed anyone of those?

After suspected militants shot dead Farooq Ahmad Reshi, apersonal security officer (PSO) of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) leader SajjadMufti in Anantnag on Friday afternoon.
