Protests erupt in Kashmir after rebel leader killed
[Iran Press TV] The killing of a top Kashmiri commander and his comrade by New Delhi forces has sparked massive protests and violent festivities across the Indian-controlled Himalayan valley.

Police front man Manoj Pandita said on Tuesday that Abu Dujana, of the Lashkar-e-Taiba
...the Army of the Pure, an Ahl-e-Hadith terror organization founded by Hafiz Saeed. LeT masquerades behind the Jamaat-ud-Dawa facade within Pakistain and periodically blows things up and kills people in India. Despite the fact that it is banned, always an interesting concept in Pakistain, the organization remains an blatant tool and perhaps an arm of the ISI...
(LeT) Death Eater group, was bumped off with an accomplice during a pre-dawn operation in Pulwama district, which is located to the south of the region's summer capital Srinagar.

Police Inspector-General Muneer Ahmed Khan confirmed that the two were killed after troops cordoned off on a tip the southern village of Hakripora during the early hours of Tuesday.

The two trapped people fired at the Indian troops, triggering a shootout that lasted at least two hours, Khan said.

Dujana, who had orchestrated several attacks against Indian forces in southern Kashmire, had a cash reward of 1.5 million rupees (about $23,400) on his head.

A police statement described the killing as a great achievement for India. "LeT chief commander Abu Dujana of Pakistain along with his accomplice killed in Harkipora Pulwama, huge achievement for police and SF (security forces)," the statement read.

Witnesses said one of the two houses from where the Lions of Islam fired was set ablaze by Indian soldiers and another was blown up using heavy explosives.
