Teetwal, Kupwara (February 5, 2025) – In a poignant and defiant display of unity, residents of Teetwal, a village near the Line of Control (LoC) in Kupwara district, organized a candlelight march on Wednesday to condemn the brutal killing of retired Army personnel Manzoor Ahmad Wagay in Kulgam, South Kashmir. The attack, which also left Wagay’s wife and niece critically injured, has sparked widespread outrage, with locals directly warning Pakistan to stop exporting terrorism to the region.

The march saw a large gathering of locals, including men, women, and youth, who lit candles and raised slogans demanding justice for the victim. Participants also sent a strong message to Pakistan, accusing it of exporting terrorism to Kashmir and urging it to halt its support for militant activities.

“We condemn this cowardly act of violence. Innocent lives are being lost because of terrorism, and Pakistan must stop exporting terrorists to our land. We will not tolerate the killing of our people,” said a local resident during the march.

Manzoor Ahmad Wagay, a respected retired Army personnel, was targeted by unidentified assailants in Kulgam on Tuesday. The attack has left the community in shock, with many calling it a senseless act against a man who had dedicated his life to serving the nation.

Locals emphasized that such acts of violence, often fueled by cross-border terrorism, would not break their resolve. They reiterated their commitment to peace and stability in the region while calling for an end to Pakistan’s alleged role in destabilizing Kashmir.
