An all-female rock band in Kashmir has decided to disband following threats of violence on social media and a fatwa from a senior local Muslim cleric.
The 3 teenage members of Pragaash (which translates as Light) told local reporters in India's only Muslim majority state that they were sorry if "the people" were unhappy with their music and that, in order to respect the religious ruling issued by Grand Mufti Mohammad Bashiruddin at the weekend, would no longer play.
