Kashmir Korpse Kount
 A top militant and a young Muslim girl were among five people killed in revolt-hit held Kashmir on Monday, a police spokesman said. Showket Ali, the divisional commander of Hizbul Mujahideen, was shot dead by Indian troops Monday in the southern district of Doda, a police spokesman said. "(Ali's) killing is a major setback to Hizbul," he said.The killing comes three days after the Hizbul claimed responsibility for a roadside car-bomb blast in Srinagar that killed nine Indian soldiers and injured more than 12 others. Elsewhere in Kashmir's Anantnag district, a policeman and a militant were killed in two separate clashes on Monday, police said. Suspected militants also shot dead a Muslim woman and a young girl in two separate attacks in the districts of Kupwara and Doda late Sunday. Posted by: Fred 2005-06-28 |
