Kashmir religous leader killed in mosque blast

2011-04-08 19:44:49 GMT+7 (ICT)

SRINAGAR, KASHMIR (BNO NEWS) -- A Kashmir prominent religious leader was killed after a bomb attack against a mosque in Srinagar, officials said Friday.

Jamiat-e-Ahli Hadees chief Moulvi Showkat Ahmad Shah, 55, was killed in an improvised explosive device (IED) blast outside the Ahl-e-Hadees mosque in the Maisuma area of Srinagar, the capital of Indian-administered Jammu and Kashmir, at around 12:30 p.m. local time, India's New Delhi Television reported.

According to reports, the blast critically injured Shah and several others, as the attack took place just minutes before Friday prayers. Emergency teams rushed Shah to a medical facility where he succumbed to his wounds shortly after.

Exact details of the incident are still unknown as local authorities are currently carrying out investigations, but initial reports said a bicycle placed near the rear exit of the mosque could have been used to plant the explosive.

Shah has been closely associated with Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front chairman Muhammad Yasin Malik. Previously, he had survived a number of attempts on his life.

In September 2009, an IED explosion in Srinagar killed three people and injured 18 after a car bomb targeted a police vehicle

Ok, Let's play the motive and justification (sic) game again. :ph34r:

What could the cleric have done to warrant someone killing him?

Cleric who termed stone-pelting protests un-Islamic killed in Srinagar blast

Yes as usual a liberal Muslim leader is murdered and the western liberal media so neuter the report that you would never know a moderate had been silenced by extemists for condemning violence. :(
