Islamabad, Oct 8 (PTI) A helicopter carrying officials accompanying President Pervez Musharraf on a visit to 2005 earthquake-hit areas crashed in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir today, killing four soldiers onboard and injuring his spokesman.

Musharraf, who was in another helicopter flying ahead, reached his destination safely, military spokesman Maj Gen Waheed Arshad said.

The medium-lift Puma helicopter, which was carrying the President's spokesman, Maj Gen (retired) Rashid Qureshi, and other officials, crashlanded at Majohi near Garhi Dupatta in the Jhelum valley after catching fire.

"Four soldiers were killed, while the President's media advisor Maj Gen Rashid Qureshi received some injuries," Arshad said.

Qureshi and three others who were injured were taken to a hospital in Muzaffarabad in PoK. Arshad said the presidential spokesman is out of danger.

The President and his team were leaving Muzaffarabad when a fire broke out in one of the three helicopters carrying officials accompanying Musharraf, forcing the pilot to make an emergency landing.

Musharraf and Prime Minister Shaukat Aziz are both visiting parts of PoK and the North Western Frontier Province that were hit by the devastating earthquake two years ago. The temblor killed over 75,000 people. PTI
