Srinagar: The Jammu and Kashmir administration on Thursday terminated services of two doctors for allegedly "actively working" with Pakistan-based groups and fabricating evidence in the 2009 "Shopian rape-murder" case, officials here said.
Two women, Asiya Jan and Neelofar, were found dead in a stream in Shopian on May 30, 2009, leading to allegations that they were raped and murdered by security personnel.
The incident sparked protests in Kashmir and brought it to a near standstill for 42 days. Later, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) took over the probe and found that the two women were never raped or murdered. (with PTI inputs)
