Four security personnel were martyred and three members of the proscribed Joint Awami Action Committee (JAAC) were killed during unrest in Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK), as police cleared miscreants from the Combined Military Hospital (CMH) Rawalakot, police said on Monday.
According to a statement issued by the spokesperson for AJK Inspector General of Police Liaqat Ali Malik, armed elements affiliated with the banned JACC attempted to disrupt law and order in Rawalakot.
The spokesperson said miscreants attacked law enforcement personnel in a planned assault on Sunday evening and later laid siege to the CMH Rawalakot. The blockade severely disrupted routine medical services and patient care at the hospital.
