Gul Khatana from Salar



Last week of July, 2014 I walk-talked with Gul Khatana a Gujar from Salar at Pahalgam. He was all praise for the slain Ghulam Nabi Koluer an intellectual from his neighbourhood. He was on way to market from the meadow up in Adou belt. I touched the topic on Mujahids. He could not resist revealing their misdeeds and misconduct especially with womenfolk. 
He said and I listened as a passive listener:" Four militants barged into the house of a villager and directed the inmates to serve them food at their hideout. Mother-daughter duo in the family was specifically directed to carry the food to the hideout and serve them there. The mother of three pleaded that due to miscarriage in the recent past she was not well. Her plea did not work and she had to oblige the ‘Mujahids’. On her return she narrated the pathetic treatment she was subjected to. All the four, one after the other raped her. Her husband went to the hideout and lodged a complaint against the four with their commander a fifth one. The commander beat all the four with the gun butt but not shot them dead. They apologized and promised never to do the wrong again.
