The stories shown in movie #kashmirifiles are true ones. Although, for the sake of movie they are clubbed together. The man who was killed in rice drum was B. K Ganjoo, a telecommunication engineer living in Chota Bazar. He was literally killed while hiding in rice drum. 
The terrorists located him on the signal of a women in neighbourhood. After killing Mr. Ganjoo terrorists said “let the rice soak in your blood and let your children eat it. Ah what a tasty meal it will be” as remembered by his wife.
As the terrorists were leaving Mrs Ganjoo asked them to kill her as well but the terrorists replied “No, someone should be left to wail over his dead body”

But family had no other income source apart from salary of Girija. therefore, she used to come to Bandipora to collect her salary. In April 1990, she was asked not to come again. but she needed money so badly that she came again in May. She was abducted from her neighbor's house.
where she was staying, as the owner of house who happened to be her father's friend. Four man abducted her on the signal of owner of the house. Few days later her mutilated, chopped body was found by the roadside.
Years later, her story was shared by a top commander of Hizb-ul-Mujahideen with a resident of Bandipora. He said, Girija was abducted and immediately blindfolded. Then gangraped by four men in a moving taxi. As the men were conversing with each other,
Girija recognised the voice of one of the men, named Aziz. As the identity of terrorists was revealed and Aziz was known to Girija. He got worried. In the act of final barbarism, they took Girija to wood processing unit and cut her alive into pieces. Horrible !!
