Guest guest Posted March 26, 2006 Report Share Posted March 26, 2006 Saturday, 25 March 2006, 08:27 GMT India landmine blast 'kills 13' Thirteen civilians have been killed in a landmine blast carried out by suspected Maoists in the central Indian state of Chattisgarh, police say. Four others are said to be seriously injured in the blast which took place in the state's Kanker district. District police chief Pradeep Gupta said the rebels blew up a jeep carrying a group of traders late on Friday. Thousands have died in Maoist campaigns across central and southern India in the past 30 years. The latest attack took place when the traders were returning from a weekly trade fair in a local village. Mr Gupta told the Reuters news agency that the rebels may have mistaken the traders' vehicle for a police jeep. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/south_asia/4844152.stm Dasha: Ve/Me/Ke/Sa/Ra satva Jorge Angelino Rua da Sociedade Filarmónica Perpétua Azeitonense, 29 2925-598 Azeitão Portugal jorge.angelino tel: mobile: 210813674 963916784 Add me to your address book...
