The Jammu and Kashmir Police have taken cognizance of the three-minute video clip purportedly showing two boys being paraded allegedly by some security personnel in Sopore, uploaded on the You Tube and Facebook.

"In the initial investigation it has been found that these reports have not been verified as yet and therefore to attribute it to security forces with the intention of maligning them and spreading disaffection amongst the people is highly regrettable," a release stated.

"Investigation is being taken up to locate the persons responsible for upload of this baseless and malicious clip," it stated and added: "Action shall also be taken against other organizations who tried to propagate it." (ANI)
