Bhaderwah additional superintendent of police Raj Singh Gouria told The Telegraph the force was investigating whether the attackers were cow vigilantes. Local people said the attackers had fired at a group of three men near Nalthi village, killing Bhaderwah town resident Nayeem Ahmad Shah, 50, and injuring another. People are angry and say he (Shah) was killed by cow vigilantes,” he said. “This on a day alleged cow vigilantes have killed a man in Badarwah (sic) area of Jammu – India’s Muslims fear for their future under Narendra Modi,” he said. Shah’s murder comes more than a month after militants killed RSS leader Chanderkant Sharma and his personal security officer in adjoining Kishtwar district, also a part of the Chenab Valley.
