Authorities re-imposed a curfew to prevent a protest march to the main
mosque in Indian-controlled Kashmir's main city Friday, but fresh street
demonstrations and clashes still occurred at more than two dozen places
amid outrage over the killing of a top rebel leader earlier this month.
Army soldiers fired at protesters in a village in northern Kupwara
district, injuring at least three teenage boys who attacked their camp
with stones and tried to barge into it, police said.
At a nearby village, at least two youths were injured with pellets fired
by government forces, a police officer said on condition of anonymity
as he was not authorized to talk to reporters.
Residents said government forces visited homes in Srinagar before dawn
Friday and asked them to stay indoors. One resident, Bashir Ahmed, said
police didn't allow bakers and milkmen to deliver supplies in the area.
