Kathua (J&K), June 12 (ANI): An eyewitness of the Kathua Terrorist Attack of June 11, Ashwani said that there were two young men around 24-25 years old there, dressed in black and holding AK-47 rifles. He further said that they called him and asked for water, but he understood that they were militants, so he shouted and asked the children playing there to go inside. He said, “It was around 7:30 to 8:00 PM, a child told me that someone was roaming here with a weapon. I was on a motorbike. I saw that two young men around 24-25 years old were there. They were wearing black dresses, had bags and were carrying AK-47 rifles with them. They called me and asked for water, but I understood that they were militants, so I shouted and asked the children playing there to go inside. I ran away and they started firing 2 minutes later and continued for around 20 minutes. Later, there was a big explosion, there must be a grenade with them. I called DDC Abhinandan Sharma and informed them about the situation. Then after around half an hour, the police were there. One was killed and the other fled.
