Elderly woman among 10 slain in Kashmir
2005-01-15
Ten people, including an elderly Muslim woman and her son, were killed in fresh violence in held Kashmir, police said on Friday. Three soldiers and two militants died during two days of fighting in the central Kashmir district of Budgam in which the two sides exchanged automatic weapons fire. "The fighting erupted Thursday evening when troops ringed a residential house on a tip-off that militants were hiding there," a police spokesman said. Troops shot dead three other militants in Rajouri, a police spokesman said. Meanwhile, militants killed overnight a member of Ikhwan — a pro-India militant group formed by former separatist rebels — and his 60-year-old mother in southern Anantnag district, police said.
