AMU had nothing to do with him now.” He also underscored that three students have been suspended after a group of them attempted to gather inside the university premises following the death of the terrorist. “Few students tried to hold a gathering today over his death but we have given a clear message that no anti-national activity will be tolerated in AMU. We did not allow them to gather and 3 students were also suspended,” Hamid said. An encounter broke out on Thursday morning between security forces and terrorists in Shartgund Bala area of Qalamabad. Hizbul Mujahideen’s top commander Manan Wani and another Hizbul operative Ashiq Hussain Zargar were killed by security forces in this encounter.
