J&K militants attempt to blow up shrine

Militants made an attempt to blow up an under-construction shrine in Pampore, 14 km from Srinagar, in Pulwama district of south Kashmir, on Monday night, an official spokesman said Tuesday.

He said an improvised explosive device, planted by militants in the shrine complex of Char Yar at Frastbal-Pampore, exploded, but caused minor damage to its wall.

Guards posted at the shrine complex fired some shots in self-defence, but no loss of life was reported, the spokesman said.
