    Jammu and Kashmir High Court directed exhumation of the bodies of two women allegedly raped and murdered in Shopian last month to collect their DNA samples subject to the consent of their family.

    Noting that the DNA report is missing and post-mortem was done in a proper way, a division bench of the high court comprising Chief Justice Barin Gosh and Justice Mohammad Yaqub Mir ordered exhumation of the bodies of Asiya and Nelofar.

    Justice Gosh directed the principal of medical college Srinagar to set up a team of doctors to perform the tests.

    "This is a sensational matter. Every man on the street, irrespective of caste or creed, is praying for the culprits to be caught," he observed. The case has sparked massive protests in the Kashmir Valley.

    The court appointed inspector general of police (CID) Farooq Ahmad as special officer inquiry and DIG Rouf-ul-Hassan as his deputy to monitor the proceedings of the special investigation team (SIT) inquiring into the case.

    Ahmad is at present carrying out an internal departmental probe into alleged negligence of duty by four suspended police officials including the former SP, Shopian.

    The court also directed the SIT headed by SP Shah Din Malik to interrogate and carry out narco-analysis test of four suspended police officials and two witnesses. It asked the SIT to submit its progress report every week to the Court.

    The orders were passed by the court after hearing the arguments of Kashmir High Court Bar Association (KHCBA) which had filed a PIL on the Shopian incident.

    Shopian rape case: HC orders exhumation of womens' bodiesBy: Suresh Rao | 05-Jul-2009 Reply | Forward Let us be very clear about one thing.The people who live presently in Kashmir are parasites.They are trying to weaken India by attempting to break away .Parasites may reside in the body of the host but that does not mean that they are the owners. Kashmir belongs to India and Indians . If they rae not happy in INDIA then please leave.India in that way is sufficiently free and does not believe forcing people to live here in India against their will. As regards Plebicite , it is a very good idea to have a Plebicite by us Indians to determine whether the people presently living in Kashmir should be allowed to live there or should be persuaded to leave. That is the only point to be decided

    Good luck !By: sakthiman | 05-Jul-2009 Reply | Forward We sympathise with victims of terror and state. But these cases have become so common across the globe that one group or one area can not claim to be seperated or targetted. As far as wars are concerned yes any body can raise war as long as he can sustain it. Typical example is Sri Lanka Tamils . One must remember that both Pakistan and India wouldn't like to compromise on the sensitive borders irrespective of what world or Kashmir thinks. So that being is clear, one is left to have his own fancies about what life he wants to lead and allow his fellow citizens to lead.Also people should remember taht Kashmir is part and parcel of Indian cultures since ages. Few groups might have setteled there, which doesn't give right to seek sepearatism. Kashmir is pride of India and 100 crore population will not be mute spectators if any untoward decisions are sought.
    Handle the situation delicatelyBy: Premshila | 05-Jul-2009 Reply | Forward Its an sensitive issue, and need to be handled carefully. Otherwise the so called freedom fighters /separatists will take advantage of the situation. Kashmir remains and will always remain an integral part of India.Its not that such atrocities happen only in Kashmir, there are number of times such incidents have been reported from other parts of the country. I am not saying that rape and murder is acceptable, the culprits must be punished and law must prevail.
    waseem and mafoor are anti nationals but saqib who lives in the heart of national capital ,is very unpatriotic and a traiterBy: Dr Anand Dube | 05-Jul-2009 Reply | Forward it is people like saqib who are the reminants of pakistan who stayed back in our country eat,do job here educate treir children here but are sympathisers of pakistan.these people should be send to pakistan,they recognise a integral part of india as a disputed territory this is the gretaest anti national comment,but this country gives you the liberty of freedom of speech,thought and action.we should be very care full like people like him should never evr be a part of our armed forces,they are not true muslims of india who declined to burry the pakistanis terrorist after mumbai.kashmir should be nonnegotiable,we dont negotiate our mother with anyone.concentrate on uprooting isi supporters within our borders,bringing people like dawood to face justice.dont ever trust paksitan,we can never ever be good neighbours forget friends.make us self sufficient to look after our defence needs.no trade withpak,not even a single visa issued to pakis.every paki is a indian enemy.p.m no more shaking ha
