Riyaz Naikoo Manages To Escapes From Kulgam Encounter; Shelf-Life Limited – Experts Warn
Many netizens claimed that top Kashmiri militant Riyaz Naikoom had been trapped and killed which turned out to be false. Riyaz Naikoo was earlier also believed to be trapped in the Kulgam Encounter in Jammu and Kashmir yesterday.
However, three militants, including Riyaz Naikoo reportedly managed to escape with intense stone pelting from the locals. The encounter was called-off, but defence experts have warned that Naikoo will be hunted soon, unless he comes out and surrenders, which appears unlikely.
