9 policemen killed in Kashmir militant attack
2003-03-16
Nine policemen and two civilians were killed and five injured when terrorists militants attacked a remote police post in Kashmir on Sunday morning, police said. "The militants struck early in the morning with rifle grenades and automatic weapons killing nine policemen and two civilians," a police official said in Jammu. Officials said 25 policemen were on duty at the post at the time.
And at least a few of them would have been awake too
On Friday, seven people were killed in a gun battle between suspected militants and security forces in Poonch near the Line of Control. Police officials returned fire, but the attackers escaped, the officer said. The attack lasted nearly an hour.
Sounds like Musharaff better hurry up with his army/ISI reshuffle, or the Indians might encourage him to do so first.
A man who identified himself as Jamil Ahmed and claimed to be a spokesman of the Jamiat-ul-Mujahedeen called a news agency office in Jammu and said the attack was jointly carried out by his group and the Harkat-i-Jehadi Islami, to target police.
The Harkat is known in Pakistan as the Punjabi Taliban.
