Authorities lift curfew in Indian-controlled Kashmir

The authorities lifted week-long curfew Saturday imposed on Muslim dominated areas of Indian-controlled Kashmir. The strict restrictions were withdrawn from almost all the towns.  However, the shops and business remained closed. Indian authorities last Saturday hanged Guru in New Delhi's Tihar jail and buried him inside its premises. Violent protests against Guru's hanging since last Saturday has left three people dead and dozens including some policemen injured. Guru, a Kashmiri resident, was convicted by Indian authorities for his role in the December 2001 attack on India's Parliament building, which killed several Indian security personnel and five attackers. He was sentenced to death in 2004 by Indian Supreme Court.
