Islamic rebels warn India against executing militant
SRINAGAR, India - Islamic rebels warned on Friday of “dire consequences” if India executes a Kashmiri Muslim convicted over a 2001 attack on parliament, amid a paralysing protest strike in Indian Kashmir’s main city and a third day of clashes between demonstrators and police.

The turmoil erupted in the Muslim-majority state after a New Delhi judge ordered that Mohammed Afzal, found guilty last month of helping to mastermind the attack, should be hanged on October 20. “We warn of dire consequences if the death sentence is carried out,” said Sadaqat Hussain, a spokesman for the United Jihad Council, Indian Kashmir’s main militant alliance which is battling New Delhi’s rule here.
"We shall have Dire Revenge!™"
Hussain, who said Afzal was innocent, did not make any specific threats in the statement published in local Indian Kashmiri newspapers.
"Use your infidel imaginations!"
Shops, businesses and schools were closed in Srinagar to protest the planned execution of Afzal.
