On Tuesday evening, security forces surrounded a house n the Ganowpora village following specific  intelligence inputs  about two militants hiding there. 

As soon as the villagers heard the  gunshots, they came out pelting stones at the security personnel to breach the cordon.

The police said tear gas was used to disperse the protesters resulting in the death of 20-year-old Adil Farooq.
