One demonstrator was killed and five injured in Kashmir when Indian troops fired bullets to disperse protests over the death of a Muslim youth.
Rafiq Bangroo died on Saturday, days after being injured in the Kashmiri summer capital Srinagar in what his family says was a beating by paramilitary forces.
Police said that they are investigating his death.
Enraged by Bangroo's death hundreds of Kashmiris took to the streets on Sunday. Protesters attacked a paramilitary bunker, prompting the soldiers to open fire that left one person dead.
Srinagar was already tense after the death of a teenager student on June 11 during clashes between police and anti-India demonstrators.
