Five persons, including senior Hurriyat leader Sheikh Abdul Aziz, were killed on August 11 when the security forces opened fire at several places in the Kashmir Valley to stop thousands of people from marching to Muzaffarabad, capital of Pakistan occupied Kashmir. Over 230 people are reported to have sustained injuries. The protesters took to the streets to break the "economic blockade" of the Valley imposed by the Shri Amarnath Yatra Sangarsh Samiti that is leading the Amarnath land agitation. Sheikh Aziz, who was the chairman of the pro-Pakistan People’s League and senior executive member of the Hurriyat Conference, was leading the march, when the Army and the police tried to stop it at Chehlan, around 16 km. from Baramulla, and opened fire. The 54-year-old Aziz was one-time head of the pro-Pakistan militant outfit Al Jehad. Earlier, thousands of people from different parts of the Valley started marching towards Sopore town, from where a caravan of trucks laden with fruits was to begin its journey towards Muzaffarabad. The Kashmir Fruit Growers Association, the Kashmir Chamber of Commerce and Industry, the Traders Federation, both Hurriyat factions and the People’s Democratic Party had given the call for ‘Muzaffarabad chalo.’ En route, the police and paramilitary troops opened fire in at least five places, including Qamarwari in Srinagar, Baramulla and Sangrama.

Pakistan army troops on August 11 lobbed mortars and targeted small arms fire at an Indian post in the Poonch sector of Jammu and Kashmir, breaching a November 2003 cease-fire agreement between the two countries for the 22nd time since January 2008, Daily Excelsior. While no casualties were reported from the Indian side, the Indian troops are reported to have retaliated with controlled firing to counter the Pakistani fire. "Pakistani troops lobbed 60-mm mortars and continued with small arms fire at the Poonch Indian post from 12.30 hours to 13.30 hours this afternoon," said Army’s spokesperson in Srinagar Lt Col A. K. Mathur. The fire from Pakistani troops came from their Rawlakot posts and it went on intermittently during the one-hour period of exchange between the two sides, Army sources said.

Security forces opened fire across Jammu and Kashmir on August 12, in which 15 protesters were killed, The Hindu reported. Some of the worst violence was reported from capital Srinagar, where six protesters were shot dead, in day-long skirmishes between mobs and police. Police killed three more protesters in the central Kashmir town of Lasjan, where police said Islamist-led rioters had attempted to storm the home of the former Minister and People’s Democratic Party legislator Javaid Ahmad Mir. A police officer was also seriously injured in the firing, which officials said was initiated by Mir’s panicked bodyguards. Soldiers killed three more protesters, including a woman, near the north Kashmir town of Paribal. A spokesperson for the Srinagar-based 15 Corps said the protesters, who were throwing stones at an isolated military picket, refused to disperse despite repeated appeals. A protester was killed in Anantnag, although confirmation on the cause of his death was not available. Police in the remote mountain town of Kishtwar killed two members of a mob that attacked homes belonging to the region’s Hindu minority. According to The Hindu, eight people have now died in Jammu since Hindu groups launched a movement demanding that the Shrine Board’s land-use rights be restored — three in police firing, one in a terrorist grenade attack, one in an accident, and the last in a protest-suicide. In the Kashmir region, the death toll is over three times as high.

four persons were killed and about 200 injured on August 25 as the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) and the Army opened fire on protesters, who defied curfew and staged demonstrations, at several places in Kashmir, The Hindu reported. The authorities also detained secessionist leaders Syed Ali Geelani and Mirwaiz Umar Farooq to stop them from marching to the Lal Chowk in the capital Srinagar to take out an "independence" rally. The deaths reportedly occurred in Handwara, Pulwama, Narbal and Hajin. As thousands of people from these areas took out processions to come here to take part in the rally, defying curfew, the CRPF and the Army tried to stop them by bursting teargas shells.
