After his death, the Kashmiri protesters came forward and attacked police stations, military installations and several buildings. They believe that Indian Armed forces keep attacking the protesting Kashmiris and call them terrorist and outsiders.
At least 23 people are killed till now in this protest and many more are injured in the clashes. Mob in the Jhelum area pelted a car of a police officer and pushed it into a river. The police officer drowned while inside of the vehicle.
