Kathua rape case: Mehbooba Mufti to hold meeting over party's course of action against BJP leaders who resigned

A meeting of senior leaders of the ruling PDP has been called by CM Mebooba Mufti to decide the partys course of action amid demands to remove two ministers of its ally BJP from the Jammu and Kashmir government for participating in a rally supporting those accused in the rape and killing of an 8-year-old girl in Kathua.

A Special Investigation Team, formed to probe the incident, has arrested eight people, including two special police officers (SPOs) and a head constable, who was charged with destroying evidence.
