Mystery attacks chopping women's hair raise panic in Kashmir

In this Monday, Oct. 16, 2017 photo, Kashmiri protesters shout slogans during a protest over increasing braid chopping incidents in many parts of Kashmir, in Srinagar, Indian controlled Kashmir. In more than 100 cases confounding police over the past month, women said they were attacked by masked men who sliced off their braids. The attacks have intensified fear and panic, protests and even vigilantes in the disputed Himalayan region, where most population is already exhausted and traumatized by decades of brutal conflict.
