NEW DELHI: Indian security forces have killed three gunmen who were involved in an attack on Hindu tourists in Indian Kashmir, home minister Amit Shah said on Tuesday.
The heavily-armed men were killed in a military operation on Monday, more than three months after 26 people were gunned down in a popular resort town of Indian Kashmir on April 22.
“I want to tell the parliament (that) those who attacked in Baisaran were three terrorists and all three have been killed,” he said.
Shah identified two of the three killed as members of Lashkar-e-Taiba, a UN-designated terrorist group based in Pakistan.
“Indian security agencies have detailed evidence of their involvement in the attack,” he said in a speech in the lower house of parliament.
