Militants in Kashmir are coming in from elsewhere as well. Police in Jammu and Kashmir claim militants killed in a recent encounter are from South India, an indication that perhaps the separatists are now gaining support from outside the state as well. Confirming for the first time there is pan-Indian support for J&K separatists, sources in the police said they had information about five militants from South India, operating in the Lolab area of Kupwara district.
