*Srinagar *In the uproar following the Shopian rape and murders, two
separate brutal killings of women by militants in Jammu and Kashmir have
almost gone unnoticed.

While the first case was that of 17-year-old Nigeen Awan which took place
barely few kilometres away from the place in Shopian of South Kashmir which
is witnessing protests over the alleged rape and murder of two women, the
second took place at Sopore where the 45-year-old lady Rashma Jan was shot
dead because her daughter and son-in-law worked with police force.

But these two deaths -- barbaric in their own way -- have gone little
noticed. Police reasons that its because of the fear as these gruesome
killings were undertaken by militants of prominent terror group Hizbul
Mujahideen, armed wing of Jamaat-e-Islamia.
