Terrorists killed three police constables in Nadimarg in Pulwama district of Jammu and Kashmir on Saturday night.

The terrorists -- it was not clear how many were there -- posed as army personnel and called out the constables on the pretext of exchanging pleasantries, sources said.

As soon as the three constables -- Manzoor Ahmad, Tahseen Ahmad and Farooq Ahmad -- came out of their picket, the terrorists shot them and decamped with their service rifles, the sources said.

Only four of the seven cops were on duty when the incident took place, the sources said, adding that one managed to escape.
