Abortive bid by ultras to blow up BSF camp in J&K

Militants made an abortive attempt to blow up a security camp and a grid station in Jammu and Kashmir where an army jawan and two militants were among four persons killed and five others, three of them army jawans, injured since Saturday evening, an official spokesman said in Srinagar on Sunday.

Militants fired a rifle grenade towards a BSF camp at Barbarshah in Srinagar in the wee hours of Sunday. The grenade missed the target and fell in a nearby nullah (gutter). No loss of life was reported, he said.

In another incident, security forces detected an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) planted by militants near the Gangoo-Lajoora grid station in south Kashmir. It was defused before it could cause any damage, the spokesman said.

Meanwhile, militants shot at and critically wounded a released militant Mohammad Hayat Hafiz in downtown Srinagar on Sunday morning, the spokesman said.

Quoting a delayed report, the spokesman said a militant, Nazir Ahmed Denga, a resident of Raiyar-Budgam, abducted one Nazir Ahmed Bhati from his house at Zogoo-Khairlan in Budgam district of central Kashmir on the intervening night of April four and five for opposing the marriage of his sister with the militant.
