Raids on private houses and extortions at gun point have become commonplace in the Kashmir valley. In all cases, the fear of being killed compels the residents to part with whatever valuables they may possess. The fear of reprisal also prevents the victims from reporting to the police. For every case registered with the police, many more have remained unreported. The gun can render even the bravest of men powerless. By targeting those who cannot protect themselves the terrorists have been guilty of cowardice of the worst order.
