Jammu, Nov. 15 -- The last of the killings had been reported in 2004; now, after more than two decades, terror has returned to Kiyar village in Jammu and Kashmir's Kishtwar district. The recovery of bullet-riddled bodies of two special police officers (SPOs) on Thursday has rekindled memories of past attacks and renewed fear among locals.

The affected families are demanding a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe into the killings, accountability for alleged security lapses and immediate strengthening of security arrangements in the area to neutralise the terror threat.

Locals say at least 10 people from the village - located in the remote Dachhan tehsil - lost their lives in the killings between 2000 and 2004.
