Twenty people, including 13 snuffies, three securitymen and four civilians, a seven year old child among them, died in terrorism-related incidents across Kashmir. Nine persons including a soldier sustained injuries. The dead included five suspected Laskhar-e-Taiba. The child was killed, and four others were injured, when a grenade they were fiddling with exploded. According to reports, the kiddies found the grenade on the road side and started playing with it.
"Aisha, have you seen my grenade?"
"Why, no, Mustafa. Didn't you have it with you when you got out of the car?"
"Musta fallen out of my pocket."
"Well, don't worry about it. We'll get you another one." |
