Lashkar terror leader killed in Kashmir
2007-10-05
Security forces have shot dead an Islamic militant leader and his aide, police said, claiming a "major success" in the fight against terrorism insurgency in Indian Kashmir. An army officer also died in the fierce gunbattle Thursday night, said S.M. Sahai, police chief for the Muslim-dominated Kashmir valley. "The elimination of the two militants is a major success for police and security forces," he said in a statement.

Sahai named the slain top rebel as Musa alias Wafa, who was serving as "divisional commander" of the hardline Lashkar-e-Taiba (Army of the Pious). "The neutralisation of Musa has given (a) severe jolt to Lashkar," he said.
