Sabzar Bhat killing: Situation under control

The situation in Kashmir remained tense but under control with authorities imposing curfew-like restrictions in most parts of the valley on Sunday following the killing of Hizbul Mujahideen commander Sabzar Bhat.

Barring a few incidents of stone pelting in Pulwama, Kulgam, Shopian and Sopore, the situation across the valley remained peaceful, a police spokesman said.

The security forces used "maximum restraint" while dealing with the situation at these places and stone pelters were dispersed, he said.

Restrictions were imposed to maintain law and order in view of protests following the killing of Bhat and another militant by security forces on Saturday.
