| Army and police today gunned down nine militants including four of them in a single operation at Mahu, Banihal in which an army Major was also seriously injured. Of nine slain ultras, five were foreign mercenaries. An army jawan also lost his life in one of the operation. In another incident, the militants gunned down a young girl and critically wounded her mother at Faisalabad, Surankote in Poonch district. Local, foreign militants clash on Kashmir issue in jail About half a dozen detenues received injuries, one of them critically, when groups of detained Pakistani and local militants clashed in Kot Bhalwal jail late last night over ‘Kashmir issue’. Official sources told EXCELSIOR that both the groups entered into verbal dual over Kashmir issue. While Pakistani militants blamed locals for the present impasse, the local militants on the other hand castigated Pakistani mercenaries for bringing about mess and destruction in the State thereby giving a set-back to their cause of ‘liberating Kashmir’. It started with a discussion on Kashmir as one of the members from the Pakistani terrorists opined that Kashmir should be a part of Pakistan which was objected to by the local militants, who were of their opinion that it should remain an independent. In the heated up the exchange of words, the local militants said that it was due to foreign mercenaries that innocent people are being killed, women raped and houses burnt down. It was due to these follies that Kashmir cause received a set-back at the international level, were the views of the local militants. The heated up exchanges took an awkward turn when the two warring groups started beating each other. In the melee, they wounded each other and about half a dozen detenues from both the groups were injured, sources informed. On the receipt of information about the clash, senior officers of Prison Department rushed to the spot and got both the groups separated. |
