The incident has happened just days after a CRPF man was suspended for firing at an ambulance driver in Safa Kadal locality of downtown Srinagar.
Scores of patients and drivers staged a sit-in outside the Old Secretariat in Srinagar after police stopped the ambulances ferrying patients between hospitals on Saturday.
The patients said that policemen manning the road outside the Old Secretariat stopped the ambulances and started harassing the patients.
“We thought staging a sit-in was the only way to highlight our sufferings,” said a patient.
The sit-in lasted for over half an hour.
