The bride and groom sustained seven gunshot wounds in total. Fragments still remain lodged inside their bodies to this day. One of Malik’s cousins, Assadullah Malik, was killed on the spot while five others were critically injured. However, the ordeal was far from over.

In May 1990 a young bride, Mubina Ghani, was detained and raped by Indian soldiers while she was traveling from the wedding to her husband's home.
Mubina, then 25, of nearby Mohripura village, was set to get married.

After that incident, Kashmiris abruptly stopped taking wedding processions during late night hours. The trauma cut deep into the Kashmiri psyche. Some wounds do not fade with time. A few years back, a man from Mohripora told me story of Mubia and i wept like a child i swear!
