Jammu, July 22: A lesser-known militant outfit, al
Shuhda brigade, today claimed responsibility for the attack on
army camp at Akhnoor here in which seven soldiers and two
ultras were killed.
The attack on the camp was carried out to protest
visiting Pakistani opposition leader Fazal-ur Rahman remarks
that Line of Control should be converted into a permanent
border and Kashmir issue should be resolved within the
framework of Simla agreement, a hand written press release
faxed by the outfit from Srinagar to a news agency office here said.
Al Shuhda brigade wants to make Rahman realise that his
statements would have no bearing on "Jehad" in Kashmir, the
outfit said.
"We are of the view that self-seeking Muslims have
always damaged the cause of Islam and Fazal-ur Rahman is the
chip of the old block. He has hurt the feelings of Kashmiri
Muslims," the release said.
