Army jawans attack Railway Police station in Kathua, six policemen injured: Sources
Srinagar: Army jawans in uniform and with weapons led by a Colonel attacked a railway police station in Kashmir and injured six policemen on Monday night, sources have told NDTV.
The jawans, numbering 35, belong to the 225 field regiment stationed at Janglote in the Kathua district.
The reason for the attack was apparently an argument between one of the jawans and a railway policeman. The jawan was heading home on leave. He went back to the base and informed his colleagues and superiors, who then attacked the police station.
They beat several of the policemen, one of whom is critical.
Others waiting at the station, fearing injuries, ran away in panic, police sources said.
The Army has refused to comment on the matter so far.
