An additional revelation states that the bodies of Colonel Manpreet and Major Ashish were found unclothed, prompting an ongoing investigation into potential signs of sexual assault or torture. Allegations suggest that information regarding the movement of Indian forces may have been leaked from within the RR or J&K Police.
The source further asserts that the Indian Army is suppressing both the actual figures of casualties and other pertinent facts. Moreover, it has been confirmed that those who facilitated the handover of Colonel Manpreet Singh, Major Ashish, and DSP J&K Police Humayun Bhat and subsequently fled the area have been apprehended.
Who lost their lives in Kashmir?
Both a colonel and a Major (IC-78151L) from 19 Rashtriya Rifles were recipients of the “Gallantry award.”
- Colonel Manpreet, who was a Lieutenant Colonel at the time he led the operation, received a promotion and a gallantry award. His tenure was due to conclude in four months.
- DSP Humayun Bhat is the son of former Deputy IG of J&K Police Ghulam Hassan Bhat. His father was appointed as DIG South just a week after Wani’s demise to handle the uprising. He spearheaded the severe and unprecedented crackdown, involving the use of pellet guns, following Wani’s death.
On the second day: Renewed gunfire erupted near the conflict zone in the Godole region of Kokarnag, Anantnag district. It is suspected that two freedom fighters are currently ensnared in the area. As of September 14, in the continuing confrontation between government forces and freedom fighters in Kokernag, two additional Indian usurper Army personnel have sustained injuries.
On the fourth day, the battle continues. There have been six casualties, among them a colonel and a major. The Indian army is reluctant to endure further losses. However, despite the assistance of air support from drones and helicopters, struggling to contain a small number of fighters in Kokernag does not reflect well on a force with decades of counter-terrorism experience.
On day six of the gunfight, the deceased body of Army member Pradeep was retrieved from the Gadole Kokarnag Gunfight location. It remains astonishing that despite India’s constant claims of military advancement, they still seem to lack fundamental surveillance capabilities using UAVs and Quadcopters.
