A policeman in Kashmir was killed after security guards at a temple "mistook him for anti-national element" as the cop allegedly tried to force his entry into the temple during night, the police said.
The constable has been identified as Ajay Dhar, a resident of Langate Handwara. In a statement, the police termed the incident as unfortunate.
A senior police officer said the sentry opened fire in the air when constable Dhar started banging the temple door late last night.
"Despite firing in the air (by the sentry), he (constable Dhar) kept banging the door without revealing his identity. It's a clear case of mistaken identity as the sentry assumed it was an attack," said Vijay Kumar, Inspector General of Police.
He took to X to share his distress, describing the situation as "painful to watch" especially since he was in the US and unable to personally intervene.
