Six Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) mercenaries, suspected to be Pakistani nationals, three security force personnel and two civilians were killed in a Fidayeen (suicide squad) attack at the Srinagar airport on January 16. All six mercenaries who comprised the squad were killed in the attack where three mercenaries managed to penetrate the high security cordon around the airport and entered the X-Ray room before being killed by security forces. One mercenary, who had hidden in some shops outside the airport was later killed. Security forces suspect that one of the civilians killed, a 16 year old girl, was an aide of the attacking squad and was spotted thrice in the day moving around the airport. 12 security force personnel and two airport officials sustained injuries in the attack. A Lashkar spokesman later claimed responsibility for the attack and revealed the involvement of six Pakistani mercenaries in the attack. Reacting to the attack, Union Home Minister, said in Delhi that, the government would take into account all major strikes by terrorists during the ongoing cease-fire before taking any fresh moves as part of the peace process in Jammu and Kashmir. News reports also speculate that a high level meeting chaired by the Prime Minister, on January 16, decided to hold in abeyance any decision on granting passports to members of the proposed Pakistan visit of an All Party Hurriyat Conference (APHC) delegation. Reports added that the government felt that Pakistan’s attempt to project the Hurriyat visit as beginning of tripartite talks on the Kashmir issue has become counter-productive. The government would now wait till Hurriyat Conference clarified its stand on the visit to Pakistan before a decision on passports is taken, the reports added.

On January 23, the Cabinet Committee on Security decided to extend the cease-fire in Jammu and Kashmir, due to end on January 26, by another month. According to official sources, the primary consideration before the government was that Pakistan would respond positively and would rein in various militant groups. Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee said, ``It is now the responsibility of Pakistan to see to it that terrorists acts in Jammu and Kashmir are stopped and there is an end to the killings of the innocent people". External Affairs Minister, Jaswant Singh, said that Pakistan's military regime remained fully in control of the militant groups and, therefore, the onus was on Islamabad to control these outfits. ``We do not buy Pakistan's argument that it has no control over these groups. They are controlled and directed by Pakistan.'' "Violence must be ended'' and peace", which has been welcomed by the people of Jammu and Kashmir, be given every chance. It was "in that hope'' he added, that "the present phase of peace in Jammu and Kashmir is being extended... by another month''.
