The dead CRPF personnel of the 179 Battallion on the paramilitary force were part of a joint security team manning a checkpoint in Sopore town when the assailant walked towards them and sprayed a volley of gunfire and scooted.
The three CRPF men died on the spot while the other two suffered multiple injuries and were evacuated to hospital. The terrorist managed to flee. A fledgling outfit, JK Fighters which owes allegiance to Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), claimed responsibility for the strike.
