An Indian policeman, his uniform torn off by Kashmiri Muslim protesters and his back showing signs of assault, staggers towards his comrades in Srinagar on July 30, 2010. Two protesters were shot and killed July 30 in Indian Kashmir when security forces opened fire on a large anti-India demonstration, witnesses said. The fatalities added to a string of deaths that have fuelled a rolling series of angry protests across the Muslim-majority Kashmir Valley in the past two months.
