NC ,PDP, congress. "Stay away or Face death"

Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) posters warning activists of pro Indian political parties and village heads not to participate in the scheduled Parliament and assembly election next year have been pasted in parts of Kashmir’s historic Old City, witnesses said on Thursday. 

 
LeT has asked people to desist from supporting any pro Indian political party of Jammu and Kashmir and has warned village heads of dire consequences in case they don’t abdicate their posts.

"People who support the present ‘oppressive regime’ and those who favour National Conference, Peoples Democratic Party, Congress or BJP and intend to participate in electoral process are hereby strictly warned of dire consequences in case they continue to support or vote political parties,” handwritten posters in Urdu of LeT pasted in parts of Jammu and Kashmir’s summer capital Srinagar warned.

The posters, appearing at many walls and electric poles in Habakadal, Kharyar, Gowkadal and Basant Bagh area of Srinagar City on Thursday threatened, "we will put any such person to death who vote and support any political party.”

Warning village heads and district presidents of pro India political parties to relinquish their posts or face dire consequences, the posters asked them to announce their resignation during Friday prayers and through newspapers.
 
The posters have names of district commander LeT Nawab Ghaznavi and another commander Yaseen Kashmiri written on them.
 
"We are investigating the matter and it is too premature to say whether these posters are genuine or just a prank," a senior police said on condition of anonymity.

He added Police are looking into the matter. Similar posters have also appeared in different parts of Kashmir including Shupain, Tral and Varmul towns. 

Ruling National Conference said such posters were nothing new in Kashmir as "we have seen this phenomenon in the past as well".

Opposition PDP chief spokesman Nayeem Akhtar said the truth about the posters must come out and police should verify the facts.

Senior Congress leader and former minister Abdul Gani Vakil said it is the duty of the police to investigate the matter.
