 SRINAGAR: Separatist Militants in Jammu and Kashmir renewed their threat on Wednesday against people planning to ride the Srinagar-Muzaffarabad bus to Azad Jammu and Kashmir. "People planning to ride the second Kashmir bus are warned to not put themselves in danger," said a faxed statement signed by four militant groups.

The second trip of the fortnightly bus service is scheduled for April 21. However, militants oppose the move and have warned people against travelling on the bus between Srinagar in India and Muzaffarabad in Pakistan. The faxed statement from the militant groups also contained a list of 28 passengers who plan to board the bus on its second trip. "We have attached the list of new applicants so they do not take this warning lightly," said the statement.

The militant signatories to the statement are Al-Nasireen (The Helpers), Save Kashmir Movement, Al-Arifeen (The Pious) and Farzandan-e-Millat (Sons of the Community). The first two groups have launched deadly attacks in the past, but little is known about the other two groups. |
