A day after the assassination of Kashmiri journalist Shujaat Bukhari, J&K Police on Friday arrested one suspect in connection with the killing, according
to IG Kashmir. The suspect, whose photograph was released earlier today by the police, was identified as Zubair Qayoom. In the picture he can be seen
retrieving the weapon from Bukhari's PSO from the sire of the accident. Addressing the media, IG J&K Police confirmed that Bukhari was assassinated in
a terror-related incident and an SIT has been constituted under Deputy Inspector General (central Kashmir) V K Virdi to investigate the matter. Earlier
today, J&K Police had released a screen grab showing a suspect in connection with the killing and had sought the help of the general public in identifying
him. The police issued the picture from a video, which was purportedly recorded by a passerby following the attack on Bukhari outside his office, showing
a bearded man surveying the inside of the journalist's vehicle. As a man pulls out Bukhari's guard, the suspect is seen picking up his pistol and disappearing
from the scene right under the nose of the cops there. Late last night, police had issued two photographs of three-motorcycle borne suspects that were
taken from the CCTV footage. However, their faces were not visible. While the driver was wearing a helmet, one-of-the pillion riders had used a face mask
to conceal his identity. The face of the third assailant, sitting in the middle, did not seem to be covered but he was leaning towards the other side
