Hours after Jammu and Kashmir Police held Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) responsible for the attack on a Amarnath yatra bus in Botengo area of district Anantnag, LeT has denied the charges terming the attack as “highly reprehensible act.”
LeT spokesman Dr Abdullah Ghaznavi in a statement issued to a news agency called the attack on Amarnath Yatris as “highly reprehensible act.”
“Islam does not allow violence against any faith. We strongly condemn such acts,” he said.
Ghaznavi said that Kashmiris have never targeted any pilgrim. “This barbarity and atrocity is trademark of Indian forces,” he said.
“India wants to sabotage the freedom struggle of Kashmiris, therefore it uses such attacks to full fill its nefarious agenda.”
“At times, India uses hindus of Uttar Pradesh to hide its terror face, and when it fails, they use false flag attacks against Amarnath Yatris,” he claimed.
