Omar tweeted he had no "regrets" that his government had detained the hardliner separatist leader who allegedly was architect of 2010 Summer unrest in Kashmir.

While terming Alam as the architect of 2010 street Violence, Omar claimed that "his detention ensured peace in the Valley even during the time of Afzal Guru's execution in 2013 and even allowed for smooth elections." "Alam was the chief architect of the 2010 protests. It's not a coincidence that the protests died out after his hard won detention. The summer of 2010 was never repeated again, not even after Afzal Guru's execution and a huge reason for that was the absence of Alam."Tweeted Omar. In an another Tweet Omar Said; "Which ever way I look at it, Alam's detention saved lives and allowed a Smoother, safer elections so I have no regrets at all," and said that whether Alam has turned "a new leaf" and "done a deal with Mufti Sayeed" or he will go back to organise trouble in the Valley, only "time can tell". One last thing for those insisting on calling Alam a "political prisoner" please check YouTube for his videos & then rush in to judge me," his tweet read. While provoking Police on Alam's release, he in another Tweet said, "I hope DG Rajendra comes forward with the facts of Alam's detention because a lot of blatant lies are being used to discredit J&K police." "To say Alam wasn't charged is a blatant untruth - he was charged under sections Sec 120, 121 (waging war against state). 120-b & 307."   Share This News with Your Friends on Social Network     Comment on this Story
