Amshipora encounter case: army says no system of cash rewards

He also said that the reports were not based on any conclusive facts and did not follow the processes internal to the Indian Army. In July last year, three youths dubbed as terrorists were

killed in the alleged fake encounter. The Jammu and Kashmir Police constituted a Special Investigation Team to probe the matter. The charge sheet that was filed on 26 December 2020 by the

police before the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Shopian, mentioned that accused Captain Bhoopinder Singh and two other civilians – Tabash Nazir and Bilal Ahmed Lone – staged the encounter and

purposefully destroyed evidence of the real crime committed by them, according to PTI. Involved in a criminal conspiracy with an intention to grab the prize money of Rs 20 lakh, the accused

have been projecting false information, the charge sheet stated. A Court of Enquiry has been ordered by the Army in the matter. _(With inputs from PTI)_
