Amreen Bhat, a 35-year-old local television actor from Jammu and Kashmir, has died after suspected militants shot at her and her 10-year-old nephew outside her home in Hishroo village of Budgam, Kashmir Observer reported.

Kashmir zone police tweeted that Bhat was taken to hospital but she did not survive the attack that took place Wednesday evening. Her nephew is reportedly undergoing treatment and is in a stable condition.

Deepest condolences to family of Amreen Bhat & prayers for fast recovery of her injured nephew. We’re firmly resolved to demolish terror ecosystem that continues to receive reinforcement from across the border,” he told ANI.
