Ahmadabad: Indian police shot dead four islamic terrorists overnight in the western state of Gujarat, the scene of bloody Hindu-Muslim violence in 2002.
Police were conducting routine searches in the main city of Ahmedabad after midnight when they were shot at and returned fire, state police chief A.K. Bhargava said.
"We have not yet been able to establish their links or motives. Some arms and ammo also found. Two of them are Pakistanis and the other two Kashmiris," he said.
In 2002, Hindu-Muslim bloodshed wracked the state after 59 Hindu pilgrims died in a train fire apparently set up by a muslim mob.
