Srinagar: At least three terrorists attacked a J&K police bus ferrying personnel of the 9th Battalion to Zewan police camp on Monday evening, killing two policemen and injuring 14, some of them critically, a police spokesman said. Sources said the helmet-wearing terrorists on motorcycles flanked the bus on both sides and opened fire at it in Srinagar’s Pantha Chowk area.
“Credible sources revealed the attack was carried by Kashmir Tigers, an offshoot of the JeM,” IGP (Kashmir) Vijay Kumar said, adding, “In retaliatory firing, one of the militants was injured. The group involved in this attack will be soon brought to justice.”
The terrorist action, the most daring yet against the police, came two days after militants killed two cops in Bandipora and just hours after police killed two LeT terrorists, including a foreigner, in a chance encounter in Srinagar’s Rangreth area.
“The police party was coming back to its campus after finishing their duties,” a police spokesman said. The two cops who succumbed were ASI Ghulam Hassan and SGCt (selection grade constable) Shafique Ali, police said. The injured were shifted to a military hospital in Badami Bagh, Srinagar, for treatment.
