A police spokesman said the gunfight broke out last night after the Police, 22RR and CRPF launched a cordon and search operation in Warpora area following a specific information generated by Srinagar Police about presence of militants in Warpora village of Sopore.
"During the search operation as the presence of terrorists got ascertained they were given repeated opportunities to surrender. However, instead of surrendering they fired indiscriminately upon the joint search party which was retaliated leading to an encounter," he said, in a statement.
