Martyrship

The valley that was already simmering with discontent over its prolonged occupation by Indian army and Para-military forces, not to mention the persistent imposition of dreaded AFSPA that empowers the military with enormous powers in Kashmir, has now to contend with the 'super stardom' and eventually the 'martyrship' of a youngster who ultimately became the poster boy of militancy in the strife-torn state.

Nader Al Shehi, cousin of martyr Adel Saleh Adel Al Shehi of Al Julan area in Ras Al Khaimah said people should actually congratulate martyrs' families and relatives on the martyrship they have won.
