Zakir Musa and al-qaida leader

Mr. Zakir Musa said the armed insurgency—which has claimed the lives of thousands of civilians and security forces since 1989—was aimed at the creation of an “Khilafat Kashmir”, unlike the stated position of armed fighters whose aim is to separate Kashmir from India.

Analysts said separatists in Kashmir have always disassociated themselves from some unknown groups, mainly to maintain legitimacy as a political struggle that carried Kashmiris’ support and have always insisted that the struggle was indigenous.
