Neelkanth Ganjoo murder: Jammu and Kashmir Police reopen 1989 case

The Jammu and Kashmir Police’s State Investigation Agency (SIA) on Tuesday reopened the case of the killing of retired Kashmiri Pandit judge Neelkanth Ganjoo by militants in 1989 and asked people to depose before the SIA to complete the investigation. 

“In order to unearth the larger criminal conspiracy behind the murder of retired judge Neelkanth Ganjoo three decades ago, the State Investigation Agency (SIA), through a communique, has appealed to all persons familiar with facts or circumstances of this murder case to come forward and share any account of events which has direct or indirect bearing on the investigation of the instant case,” an official spokesman said.

The communique said the identity of all such persons shall be kept completely hidden and protected. All useful and relevant information shall be suitably rewarded, it added.
