Rebels bomb buses in Assam: 5 killed

AFP, Guwahati
Five people were killed and 42 wounded yesterday when militants blew up a passenger bus and another bus carrying soldiers and their families in northeastern India, officials said.
Two people were killed and 33 wounded, some critically, when explosives concealed in a sack blew apart a crowded bus in the town of Gossaigaon, 270km west of Assam state's main city of Guwahati, they said.
"Passengers spotted an unidentified sack inside the bus and as they were trying to disembark, the explosion took place, blowing apart the vehicle," Kokrajhar district magistrate Asish Bhutani told AFP.
Police said the casualties would have been higher but the bomb exploded after several passengers got off for breakfast at a roadside restaurant.
Police suspect the United Liberation Front of Asom (Ulfa), which is fighting for an independent homeland in Assam, was behind the attack.
An hour later a bus belonging to the paramilitary Border Security Force (BSF) hit a landmine in the town of Paikan, 140km west of Guwahati.
Two soldiers and a six-year-old girl, the daughter of a trooper going on holiday, were killed, said police Inspector General Khagen Sharma.
The bus was carrying soldiers and their families from a border post to Guwahati. Nine people were wounded.
Assam Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi called for peace talks with Ulfa and accused both Bangladesh and Myanmar of harbouring cadres of the banned separatist group.
"We want the Ulfa to come for talks. The people of Assam want the Ulfa to stop these barbaric attacks on civilians and come for negotiations," Gogoi said, adding, however, the rebels did not appear to be ready to talk.
"The Ulfa it seems does not want to come for talks and the violent attacks are a pointer ... The Ulfa has declared a war on the people of Assam and we cannot tolerate such cowardly attacks," he said.
"We want the governments of Bangladesh and Myanmar to crack down on Ulfa camps located in their countries ... We have definite reports of the Ulfa having bases inside these two neighbouring countries."
Bangladesh has denied the presence of Indian rebel groups in its territory. Myanmar has assured New Delhi that it will expel any Indian insurgents it finds.
