Srinagar: The Hurriyat Conference on March 26 demanded an "impartial probe" into Nadimarg massacre and called for steps to restore the confidence of minority community in Kashmir valley.

"Hurriyat wants an impartial probe into the massacre so that the culprits are identified and such incidents do not occur again," a Hurriyat spokesman said after nearly two-and-a-half hour meeting of its seven-member executive council.

He said the meeting "expressed grief and sorrow" over the massacre of 24 Kashmiri Pandits on March 24.

Hurriyat sources said the Nadimarg carnage dominated the meeting and the separatist leaders called for steps to restore confidence of the minority community living in the valley.

They said the meeting also briefly discussed the Hurriyat's stand on the issue of dialogue with Centre's interlocutor N N Vohra.

It was not decided yet whether Hurriyat should go ahead with the dialogue process or not, the sources said.

Hurriyat chairman Abdul Gani Bhat, executive members Mirwaiz Moulvi Umer Farooq, Mohammed Yaseen Malik, Moulvi Abbas Ansari and Bilal Gani Lone and representative of Jamaat-e-Islami Zahid Ali attended the meeting.

No one from the People's League turned up for the meeting, as most of their leaders were not present in the city, the spokesman said.
