Srinagar: A youth who was hit by an Army vehicle on Baramulla Kupwara road near Nadihal village on June 21 succumbed to his injuries at SKIMS hospital on Wednesday.
The deceased has been identified as Asif Ahmed Lone, son of Khazir Mohammad Lone, a resident of Nadihal Baramulla.
Soon after the news spread about his death in the area, people in thousands hit roads and started anti-India protests amid pro-freedom and pro-azadi sloganeering.
Last week, the army vehicle knocked down the two-wheeler injuring Asif Ahmad Lone Lone and Khursheed Ahmad Lone, both residents of Nadihal. They were immediately shifted to hospital where Asif was shifted to SKIMS for specialised treatment.
