Protest shuts Indian Occupied Kashmir after killings of 3 men
Anti-India protests and clashes with police have erupted in the territory.
SRINAGAR (Web Desk / AP) - The mysterious killing of three young men in the Indian Occupied Kashmir has prompted protesters to call a general strike in the region.
Indian forces patrolled deserted streets Wednesday in the region s main city of Srinagar, where businesses, shops and schools were closed.
Villagers on Monday discovered the bullet-riddled bodies of the three local men bearing torture marks in an orchard in Pattan, north of Srinagar.
It was not immediately clear what had happened, and police and Kashmiri leaders blamed each other.
Since then, anti-India protests and clashes with police have erupted in the territory, which is divided with Pakistan but claimed by both countries entirely.
Most people in the India Occupied Kashmir mistrust Indian rule, and more than 68,000 people have died due to Indian brutality.
