Since the outbreak of the virus, 16 terrorists are killed of which the bodies of only five are handed over to the families.

The families need to undertake that the funerals are going to be held quietly and if found violating an equivalent , stringent action would follow. The officer cited above said that they're following an equivalent norm that's wiped out the case of foreign terrorists.

All foreign terrorists are given quiet funerals to make sure that there are not any huge crowds and that they don't find yourself becoming heroes, the officer also said.
