Eyewitness claims the dead man was pulled out of a game house at Banja Street and killed and dumped at Mundi Junction, another version claims it was a gun battle between separatists and the military which left one of the separatist fighters death
Another version says separatist fighters were on a failed kidnap attempt which got them returning with gun firing before they were taken unawares by the military, killing one of them.
