Aditya,

Whosoever killed him will remain a matter of speculation but it presses home
the point that if you live by the sword you will die by it.
Examples of Mirwaiz Farooq,Dr.Guru and "cry baby" Sajjad's dad have already
been consumed the very Frankestein's they lived with.

In Kashmiri there is a saying"Aenem Soy Vavem soy lajem soy panesey"
