The militants barged into the houses of constable Firdous Ahmad Kuchey, Kuldeep Singh and Nissar Ahmad Dhobi and Fayaz Ahmad Bhat, brother of a cop at Kapran in Shopian and later kidnapped them at gun point.
The bullet-riddled bodies of policemen were recovered while Fayaz was released, the sources said, adding that a massive search operation has been launched to nab the militants responsible for these killings.
Senior security force and police personnel have rushed to the spot, they said.
Details are awaited.(UNI)
