The JAAC was outlawed last week by authorities, citing concerns over public order and security. Clashes broke out in the city of Rawalakot on Sunday after tensions flared over the death of a trader, who was allegedly shot during a confrontation with law enforcers on Friday night.
Commissioner Sardar Waheed Khan, the top civilian official in Rawalakot, told news agency Reuters JAAC supporters had gathered outside a hospital mortuary where the trader’s body was taken after his death in firing by police.
