OCCUPIED SRINAGAR : Seven protesters and a policeman were killed Monday in Indian occupied Kashmir in the most deadly day of violence since mass demonstrations against Indian rule began three months ago, police said.

A policeman and three protesters were killed during fierce clashes in central Budgam district, while another three died in western Tangmarg village after a mob torched a church-run school, local police officials told AFP.

An eighth man died in northern Bandipora district after security forces opened fire at stone-hurling protesters who were chanting slogans in support of Kashmiri independence. afp
