Srinagar, July 27: Jammu and Kashmir police has announced a reward of Rs one lakh besides government job for anyone who will catch a grenade thrower.

Encouraged by the recent arrest of Mudasir and Hanief Bengali after announcing a reward of Rs five lakh and Rs three lakh respectively, the Zonal police headquarter said anyone who will catch a grenade thrower anywhere in the valley, will be given Rs one lakh and a government job.

About 30 persons were injured in three different grenade attacks at Narabal, Magam chowk and Sopore in north Kashmir during the past three days.

About a dozen tourists from Kolkata, Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh were killed and scores wounded in different grenade attacks in the city and outskirts during the past two months.
