SRINAGAR: The commission of inquiry is believed to have identified the agency guilty of the rape and murder of two young women in a south Kashmir town on May 30.
Retd justice Muzaffar Jan, who headed the one-man commission, submitted his 400-page report to the state government on Thursday asking it to take action on its findings and recommendations within two months and also to make the report public.
Sources in the commission said that the agency has been identified unmistakably in the report and it was for the special investigation team now to go ahead with the final act of identifying the men in the agency to arrest them. The agency believably is part of the police. The report sources here said confirms rape and murder of 17-year-old Asiya Jan and her 22-year old sister-in-law Nilofar Jan.
The commission has come up with new finding that Nilofar Jan was not pregnant as claimed by the relatives earlier.
The commission which completed its findings in nearly a month has examined over 50 witnesses comprising civil and police officers and local people and scanned the record of 4,000 mobile phone calls made during that fateful night and the following days. The government has already taken action on the 200-page interim report submitted by the commission last month, which resulted in the suspension of four police officers, an official of the forensic science laboratory and two doctors. But the commission is believed to have in its final report recommended the prosecution of the four police officers for dereliction of duty and destruction of evidence.
