The terror outfit Kashmir Freedom Fighters (KFF) claimed responsibility for killing a Kashmiri Pandit, Sanjay Sharma, in Pulwama. The terror outfit has further threatened Kashmiri Hindus with more attacks in days to come.
KFF’s spokesperson Waseem Mir said, “Today in wee hours our cadre eliminated a Kashmiri Pandit namely Sanjay Sharma s/o Kashinaath Sharma R/o Achan Pulwama. We already have warned many times in the recent past that any Kashmiri pandit, Hindus or Tourists from India will be eliminated.”
