| NIA to question Yasin Malik | | |
Early Times Report
SRINAGAR, Feb 26: Following National Investigation Agency raids at the residences of former militant turned separatist leader Muhammad Yasin Malik and several others in Srinagar on Tuesday, the NIA is likely to question the Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front Chairman.
Sources said the NIA was tightening nose around Malik who is likely to be questioned by the investigative agency in the coming days.
Yasin, who is already under detention since last week is likely to be grilled by the investigators in Srinagar at the NIA camp office here. Sources said the "future course of action" would be decided only after the questioning.
It was reliably learnt that NIA has "got access to incriminating evidence" against Malik.
Pertinently, since the 2017 raids on separatists, Malik was not questioned in connection with the terror funding case though many senior Hurriyat leaders have been arrested.
"But given the inputs of his being partner in numerous business ventures in Kashmir, he is set to be questioned," said a source in know of the matter.
Earlier in the day, no sooner the NIA team reached Maisuma for raids on Malik's residence, miscreants resorted to stone pelting.
Sources said the miscreants who resorted to stone pelting are Malik's "hired" workers who were asked to stage protests against raid at the residence of their paymaster.
"This is an open secret in Kashmir that stone pelters of Maisuma are hired workers of JKLF. They do it for money," said a police official on the condition of anonymity.
Meanwhile in the wake of NIA raids the so called Joint Resistance Leadership (JRL) has called a two-day shutdown in Kashmir on Wednesday and Thursday.
National Investigation Agency (NIA) carried out raids at the residences of Mirwaiz Umar Farooq, Yasin Malik, Ashraf Sehrai, Shabir Shah and Zaffar Akbar Bhat on Tuesday morning. |
