Kashmir Korpse Kount
Violence is what usually leaves large numbers of people dead in Kashmir. That and riding on buses...
Eighteen people died on Sunday in violence across Indian-held Kashmir, including four civilians killed by a bomb outside a liquor shop. Snuffies Suspected militants placed explosives inside a videocassette recorder left in front of the alcohol store in the town of Rajouri. âA group of people went to see the VCR and it blew apart, killing two people on the spot,â a police official said. Doctors at the Rajouri hospital said four people were killed in the blast and 28 injured, including seven in serious condition who were airlifted for treatment in Jammu.
| Booby-trapped VCRs â that makes sense. No telling what people could be looking at on those sorts of things. If they'd been home reading their Korans, nothing woulda happened to them, unless some gunnies happened to come by and cut off their heads... |
Elsewhere in southern Kashmir, an Indian soldier and two hard boys militants died in a gunbattle at Gursai in the Poonch district.
| Your basic Kashmir shootout. Nobody has a name. There's no reason. Doesn't even say what they died of... |
Indian troops banged shot dead six more suspected Pakistanis militants in three separate incidents.
Police said krazed killers militants also slaughtered killed five Muslim civilians in four incidents around the state. The motives for the civiliansâ slayings were not immediately clear.
| Wrong color turbans? Reading the wrong chapters of their Korans? Who knows? |
