Srinagar, Jun 2 (PTI) Separatists in Kashmir today condemned the killing of a 21-year-old protester who was allegedly hit by a CRPF vehicle during clashes, saying that it was a case of "plain murder".

The Joint Resistance Leadership (JRL) alleged that the killing spree of Kashmiri's by the forces continues despite the so-called Ramzan ceasefire.

A JRL spokesman said what was worse that the police registered a case of rash driving into the death of the protester.

"It is as if the incident happened by accident, when it is a case of plain murder. The accused would anyway go scot-free under AFSPA," he said.

The separatists claimed that the "assault" on Kaiser Bhat's funeral procession reflects "the authorities' anti-people and inhuman approach".

The JRL comprises separatists leaders Mirwaiz Umar Farooq, Syed Ali Geelani and Mohammad Yasin Malik.

"Repeatedly putting the old city areas under curfew and snapping internet connections in the holy month of Ramzan is uncalled for and highly condemnable," they said.
