Yasin Malik, others released from Srinagar central jail

JKLF expresses condolences to senior Journalist Zahir-ud-din on demise of his mother

Srinagar: JKLF Chairman Muhammad Yasin Malik and others who had been arrested by police on 10th December 2017, and were lodged at Srinagar central jail have been today released from custody.

Though the Incarcerated Shabir Ahmad Dar, Mushtaq Ajmal, Ramiz Raja, Farooq Ahmad Sodagar, Zahoor Ahmad Butt, Bashir Ahmad Kashmiri and Ghulam Muhammad Dar were released after furnishing a personal bond but in order to prolong the detention of JKLF chairman Muhammad Yasin Malik authorities brought up some older case of year 2014, registered at Ram Munshi Bagh police station and tried to halt his release.

Today instead of releasing Yasin Malik from Srinagar central jail, police presented him before judicial magistrates’ court and after a long hearing, court ordered his release from open court.

It is worth to mention that JKLF activists Meraj ud din Parray and Mudasir Ahmad who were arrested at Islamabad yesterday are still in police custody and have yet not been released.

Meanwhile JKLF has expressed its heartfelt grief and sorrow over the sad demise of the mother of senior journalist and writer Zahir ud din.

JKLF has also expressed grief over the demise of grandmother of its activist Irfan Ahmad Khan of Athwajan Srinagar.

A JKLF delegation led by secretary general Engineer Ghulam Rasool Dar Eidhi today visited the residence of Zahir ud din and expressed condolences to him and to the other members of the bereaved family.

JKLF is expressing heartfelt condolences to both the bereaved families and prays for the heavenly abode of the deceased.
