The death has sparked outrage in Kashmir with politicians across party lines seeking an 바카라impartial investigation바카라 into the matter.
Health Minister and National Conference (NC) leader, Sakina Itoo, who visited the area to meet his family, demanded a judicial probe into the death. CPI(M) leader and MLA of Kulgam, MY Tarigami, also sought an impartial investigation in the matter.
바카라The mysterious death of Magray has raised serious questions with his family alleging that he was picked up by the Army a few days earlier. The incident calls for a thorough and impartial investigation to establish the circumstances that led to the youth바카라s death,바카라 says Tarigami.
