The terrorists fired indiscriminately at the policemen and escaped with their rifles. The policeman killed in action was identified as Mudasir Ahmad. The terrorists had targeted the home of National Conference leader Ghulam Mohiuddin Mir
Early investigations suggest the attack was carried out by the Zahoor Thokar group of the Hizbul Mujahideen. Terrorists in Kashmir often target police posts to steal weapons and ammunition. Pulwama is in South Kashmir, considered a hotbed of terrorism in the state.
