Mangalore Today News Network

Srinagar, Sept 22, 2018 : Before the kidnapping and murder of three policemen by terrorists in Jammu and Jashmir on Friday, the family of one of them had pleaded before the terrorists for mercy.

 

The policemen, including Special Police Officers, were dragged out of their homes in Kapran village of Shopian three days after Hizbul Mujahideen terrorists put out a video threatening to kill policemen unless they posted their resignations online. Their bullet-ridden bodies were found in an orchard.

In a video, the family of constable Nisar Ahmad, Special Police Officer, had issued a public appeal to terrorists requesting his release and pledged to ensure his resignation from the police force.

The heartbreaking plea of his 70-year -old Saida Begam in the video didn’t move the terrorist. With folded hands, she had pleaded for mercy and the release of her only son. Soon after the kidnapping, the family made a public appeal that Nisar will resign after Friday prayers.

"We had decided that on Friday, he will announce his resignation. Now we appeal to these brothers (terrorists) to set him free and we make him resign today (Friday). We don’t want this job because he is the lone son of his parents,’’ said a relative.

In less than half an hour after he was kidnapped, Nisar Ahmad was killed along with two other policemen. The family says that at around 7 am, terrorists barged into their home and forced the police constable to accompany them. The terrorists didn’t listen when the family promised that he will resign the same day.

Nisar Ahmad, 44, was the sole breadwinner of his family. He is survived by his elderly parents, two children and his wife.

"We begged for his release. They(terrorists) said they will let him free but then they killed him," said a relative.
