Pulwama suicide attack: 5 jawans killed after terrorists launch pre-dawn
assault on CRPF camp in Jammu and Kashmir; 3 militants slain

Srinagar: Heavily armed terrorists launched a pre-dawn attack on a CRPF
camp in Pulwama district of South Kashmir, killing five personnel of the
force and injuring three others, a security forces spokesperson said.

CRPF spokesperson Rajesh Yadav said the bodies of two terrorists have also
been recovered while one more is believed to have been killed. "Five CRPF
jawans have been martyred and others are injured. The bodies of two
terrorists have also been recovered. We believe another terrorist has also
been killed," Yadav told PTI.

He said intermittent firing was still on and one terrorist is believed to
be holed up in building block. A CRPF official said the "heavily armed
militants stormed the camp at about 2 am. They were armed with under-barrel
grenade launchers and automatic weapons. They were challenged by camp
sentries."

Yadav told PTI the terrorists fired indiscriminately and injured three CRPF
personnel. One of the injured personnel was identified as Saifuddin, a
resident of Nowgam, officials said.


Director General of Police S P Vaid said security forces had inputs about
an impending militant strike in the Valley for the past three days.

Terming the attack as "unfortunate", Vaid said as long as Pakistan keeps
sending militants, security forces and people of Kashmir will continue to
go through this.


"There was an input from the last two-three days.They (militants) were
trying. They probably could not get a place and time earlier. So, they
struck last night," Vaid told reporters. The CRPF camp also serves as
training centre for troops inducted for counter-militancy operations in
Kashmir.

A Jammu and Kashmir Police team is also co-located with CRPF in this camp.
