SRINAGAR, INDIA - Grenade attacks at a bus stand and a marketplace wounded 52 people, mostly civilians, in two towns in Indian-controlled Kashmir on Friday, police said. <br>

Attackers threw four or five grenades into a busy market at midmorning, wounding 35 civilians in Shopiyan, 30 miles south of Srinagar, the summer capital of Jammu-Kashmir state, said an officer at the state's police control room. <br>

``There were no security forces present. We were going about our daily market routine,'' said Mohammed Shaban, 55, one of the wounded, who was hospitalized in Srinagar. <br>

About five hours later, at least two grenades were tossed at a busy bus stand in Anantnag, 35 miles south of Srinagar, wounding 17 people. They were all civilians except for two paramilitary troopers from the Central Reserve Police Force, said the police control room officer, who spoke on condition of anonymity. <br>
