The death of Naseer Ahmed of Dodasan Bala village of Thanamandi in Rajouri district of Jammu division came as a shock. Naseer was among those martyred in the Pulwama terrorist attack when a suicide bomber rammed his RDX-laden SUV into the CRPF convoy at Lethpora on Thursday. Naseer had celebrated his birthday on February 13 and attained martyrdom a day after his 46th birthday, several media outlets reported.
Naseer was an orphan who was raised by his elder brother Salah-ud-din before joining the CRPF as constable. From constable, he got promoted to the rank of head constable. "My father had died when he was born. I raised him like my child. I was in Jammu and I reached home during night," said Salah-ud-din, quoted as saying by DNA. Ahmed is survived by his wife and minor son and a daughter.
The CRPF on Friday said it won't "forget and forgive" but will "avenge" the death of 40 of its personnel in one of the worst terror attacks on its troops in Jammu and Kashmir.
The country¡¯s largest paramilitary force put out a tweet from its official handle saying, ¡°We will not forget, we will not forgive.¡±
¡°We salute our martyrs of Pulwama attack and stand with the families of our martyr brothers. This heinous attack will be avenged,¡± it said in the social media post.
