Terrorists have slit the throats of two of the four policemen abducted after the attack on a police post in Udhampur on Sunday.

The bodies of head constable Nissar Ahmed and special police officer Sheer Mohammed were recovered from Snub Nullah, near the site of attack, on Monday, a police spokesman said.

The other two -- constable Manzoor Ahmed and special police officer Jan Mohammad -- reported back on Sunday night at a security picket in Gool area after escaping from the captivity of the terrorists, the spokesman said.

Eleven people, including nine policemen, were killed in the attack on Sunday.
