Soz, Bhim Singh condemn Doda killings

New Delhi, May 1 (UNI) Union Water Resources Minister Saifuddin Soz today said the killing of 22 'innocent villagers' at Doda in Jammu and Kashmir by militants last night reflected the cowardice of those who are bent upon committing heinous crimes against humanity.

In a condolence message to state Chief Minister Ghulam Nabi Azad, the Minister said every 'sane' person was with him in the fight against terrorism.

Jammu and Kashmir Panthers Party Chief Bhim Singh appealed to all sections of people and political parties to jointly condemn the massacre by observing a bandh in Jammu tomorrow.

He also demanded a judicial inquiry into the circumstances that led to the tragedy.
