SRINAGAR: The Hurriyat (m) Conference on Thursday termed NIA raids on the residences of resistance leaders including Mirwaiz Umar Farooq as a “well-planned design and propaganda” to malign and implicate leadership in false cases and discredit the people’s movement for self-determination.
In a statement issued here, Hurriyat expressed strong resentment and condemned the authorities decision of barring APHC chairman from addressing media men and placing him under house arrest since yesterday stating that such authoritarian measures will not be able to scare the leadership.
Hurriyat strongly condemned the detention and house detention of many resistance and religious leaders that include Prof Abdul Gani Bhat, Muhammad Yasin Malik, Mukhtar Ahmed Waza, Jamaat-e-Islami chief Dr Hameed Fayaz, Jamiat-e-Ahlihadees vice chairman Mushtaq Ahmed Veeri besides dozens of religious and hundreds of pro-freedom activists and termed the move as an utter frustration and dictatorial on part of the authorities.
