A helicopter has crashed while escorting the Pakistani President on a visit to Kashmir today, killing two of his bodyguards and injuring his chief spokesman.

General Pervez Musharraf routinely travels with a number of helicopters as decoys to thwart assassination attempts, and was not aboard the stricken aircraft, which was carrying a dozen people when it made a crash landing in the mountainous region.

Witnesses reported however hearing a bang while the helicopter was still airborne, and watching the pilot nursing his craft over a village at low altitude, trailing smoke, before coming down in a field.

A nation of radical Muslims probably hiding Bin Laden with access to the bomb.
