Tensions are running high in Pakistan-administered Kashmir, where officials have accused an outlawed political group of trying to disrupt elections. The group is suspected of attempting to sabotage the vote for the region's constitutional assembly. Militants from the Pakistani Taliban are also believed to have infiltrated protests in the area.

Clashes with security forces have resulted in the death of one paramilitary officer and injuries to several others. Further details on the situation are available from KSAT 12's source, including reports of violence and unconfirmed casualties among protesters.
