Khan gets permission to attend Assembly

Srinagar: The J&K Police have permitted former health minister Shabir Khan, accused of molesting a doctor, to attend the ongoing Assembly session in Jammu.
Khan, who presented himself before the Investigating Officer (IO) at Shaheed Gunj police station in Srinagar on Thursday, had moved an application before the police, seeking to attend the ongoing Assembly session.
“After he had presented himself for questioning at the police station, Khan also moved an application for permission to leave Srinagar to attend the Assembly proceedings at Jammu. He was granted permission to leave for Jammu by the police today,” said a top police source.
Khan had been evading arrest since an FIR was registered against him.
