Srinagar: The family of one of the civilians killed in the Hyderpora encounter expressed gratitude to Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha on Thursday for ordering a magisterial inquiry into the incident and demanded that the victim’s body be returned to them.

Interacting with reporters, Altaf Ahmad Bhat’s brother Abdul Majeed said the family also demands that the killers of his sibling be brought to justice.

“I am thankful to LG for ordering an inquiry. I am thankful that my oppressed voice was heard by someone. I only have one request to the LG, I want the body of my brother returned to us and the killers of my innocent brother brought to justice,” Majeed said.

He said that after the announcement of the inquiry, he was hopeful that the family will get justice. “I request the LG to please return the body quickly because his (Bhat’s) children want to see the face of their father one last time,” Majeed said.
