1. Petitioners happen to be the parents of one Balbir Singh

who was serving as constable NO.911325971 in CRPF

and died in harness in an IED blast triggered by

militants on national highway at Ramsoo Tehsil Banihal

when, on 11.11.2002, he alongwith other constables

was travelling in a bus forming part of a convoy from

Srinagar to Jammu. The tragic blast consumed lives of

three CRPF Jawans including Balbir Singh while some

others sustained injuries. Case for offence under

Section 302/307 RPC and 7/27 Arms Act came to be

registered in this regard. Body of deceased was brought

to his home village for cremation and the same was

consigned to flames at Shast
