Video shows attack on CRPF soldiers in Pampore

On Saturday, in a terrorist attack eight CRPF soldiers were killed and more than 20 were injured in Jammu and Kashmir's Pampore. In relation to it, a video has surfaced recently that shows one of the two terrorists firing indiscriminately at the bus. 

In the wake of this, there are speculations whether there were lapses on part of the forces which led to such high casualty figures. Meanwhile, Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar has said a probe will now determine whether the standard operating procedure was violated by the bus-borne CRPF personnel at Pampore.

As Saturday's attack on a CRPF convoy, the deadliest one on security forces in recent years that left eight personnel of the force dead, triggered an outrage, Home Minister Rajnath Singh and Manohar Parrikar said the security forces have "standing orders" and "full freedom" to retaliate and forget the "count of bullets" if they are fired upon.
