New Delhi: In the first incident of its kind, J-K police on Tuesday claimed to have killed two Keralite militants during a gunfight in border district of Kupwara.

But the Kerala police claimed the identification papers found on the two alleged militants were forged.

Security forces in Kashmir had shot dead the two militants – suspected to be Indian Mujahideen operatives – while trying to enter Pakistan-occupied-Kashmir to get training from Lashkar-e-Toiba.

The Army had claimed they were from the Malappuram district in Kerala and were allegedly planning to return to India and carry out attacks.

According to intelligence agencies, this group was operating from Kupwara for the last 20 days.

A hunt is on for three men who escaped.
