The father-son duo refused to entertain the terrorists and fled from the house towards more populated lane. The terrorists followed them. The terrorists then entered another house and asked for water and vehicle to drop them at some distance. They too refused.

In the meantime, police which had been tipped off about presence of the terrorists, reached Saida Sukhal and challenged the terrorists. One of the terrorists tried to lob grenade on civilians and police party but was killed in police retaliation. His associate managed to escape taking advantage of darkness. However, he could be reportedly hiding somewhere in the village.
