SRINAGAR, India - Two suspected Islamic militants were killed in a gunbattle with soldiers on the outskirts of Indian-controlled KashmirÂ’s main city on Monday, police said. Security forces raided a truck lot early Monday after receiving a tip that suspected militants were hiding there, triggering the gunbattle that killed the suspected rebels, said police officer Dalip Singh.
