Srinagar: Jammu and Kashmir's State Investigation Agency (SIA) released a public information request on Monday, nearly 33 years after retired judge Neelkanth Ganjoo was shot dead by militants. The SIA is hoping to uncover a "larger criminal conspiracy" behind the death.
In a case involving the slaying of police officer Amar Chand in the 1960s, Ganjoo handed down a death sentence against Jammu Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF) founder Mohammad Maqbool Bhat. In November 1989, he was one of the notable Kashmiri Pandits who were murdered by terrorists.
