SRINAGAR: Kashmir state investigation agency (SIA) on Thursday filed a 340-page supplementary chargesheet against Mian Abdul Qayoom, former president of Kashmir high court bar association (HCBA) in the Babar Qadri killing case before the third additional sessions judge (special judge U/S 22 NIA Act) Jammu.
Babar Qadri, a young lawyer in his late twenties, was gunned down at his residence, Zahidpura (Hawal) Srinagar, on September 24, 2020.
Police in a statement said that Qadri had returned home after attending court on the fateful day that three terrorists visited his house at about 6.30 pm and asked the domestic help for a meeting with him on the pretext of discussing some case.
"While one of the terrorists waited outside the main gate to keep an eye on the happenings around, the remaining two who were also carrying a dummy case file were made to sit on the chairs placed in the verandah. Soon Babar Qadri came out of the house to meet them and was fired upon minutes later. The terrorists then fled away from the spot. The injured Babar Qadri was shifted to SKIMS Soura, Srinagar but succumbed to his injuries enroute," the spokesman said, adding that the case was registered under UAPA at Lalbazar police station and the investigation was taken up by a special investigation team (SIT) framed by IGP Kashmir to be headed by SP Hazratbal.
