SRINAGAR, Jan 3: A hardline group has claimed it has formed a suicide squad to target the police chief of occupied Kashmir.
“The director general of police will be the main target of our group,” Ahmed Yar Ghaznavi, a spokesman for Al Badr Mujahideen, was quoted as saying by an Urdu daily, Alsafa.
“The group has already formed a five-member suicide squad to target Suri,” Ghaznavi said, referring to police chief Ashok Kumar Suri.
He said the decision to target Suri was taken at a meeting chaired by the group’s chief commander, Jamaluddin Engineer.
“The five (militants) have already left for the job,” said Ghaznavi. —AFP
