Shocker: Fight between two families leaves one dead in Kashmir

In a tragic turn of events in Kashmir’s Bonzil Haripora area of Ganderbal, a family dispute stemming from a land disagreement resulted in the untimely demise of Ghulam Mohammad Sheikh. The altercation, involving two families, led to Ghulam Mohammad Sheikh, a 65-year-old retired employee and son of Amir Sheikh, sustaining severe injuries. Despite efforts to save him, he tragically succumbed to his wounds at PHC Wusen, as confirmed by sources. Following this unfortunate incident, law enforcement officials have swiftly responded, with a senior police officer informing the media that a case has been registered, initiating a comprehensive investigation into the matter.

This heartbreaking incident echoes recent instances of intra-family violence in the region.

Additionally, in the Pattan area, another incident occurred where a brother was injured amidst a quarrel with his sibling. These incidents underscore the pressing need for proactive measures to address and prevent such tragic outcomes, emphasizing the importance of community-based conflict resolution mechanisms and law enforcement intervention in ensuring the safety and well-being of individuals within families.
