For several years, Muzaffar Wani, a middle-aged school headmaster, lived an ordinary life in Sharifabad village of South Kashmir. But an encounter on July 8 catapulted the school principal to an exalted position in the Valley. Today, he is known as ‘Burhan Wani’s father’, as the man who ‘sacrificed’ two sons for the sake of Kashmir’s ‘azadi’.
The death of the Hizbul Mujahideen poster boy , who had fired the imagination of young Kashmiris, has sparked an outrage so intense the Valley has been on the boil for over 40 days. Hundreds of youth have taken over the highways and by-lanes, and it is difficult to venture into South Kashmir. Burhan holds sway even after his death and the slogan everywhere is: ‘Tera bhai mera bhai, Burhan bhai, Burhan bhai’.
