Srinagar: Two days after a youth in North Kashmir’s Sopore area was killed in a firing incident, the separatist leadership here continues to remain under house arrest on the second consecutive day.
According to the reports received by KNS, most of the separatist leaders continue to remain under house confinement days after they issued a strike call against the killing of a 28 year youth Arshad Ahmad Shah.
The reports maintained that as the situation in the summer capital turned normal after three days, the authorities here didn’t lift the restrictions imposed earlier on the pro-freedom camp.
The senior Huriyat Conference (G) leaders including Mohammad Ashraf Sehrai, Altaf Ahmad Shah, Ayaz Akbar and Peer Saifulllah remained under house arrest. Also the deployment continues to remain in force outside the residence of the senior separatist leader Syed Ali Geelani. The police sources told KNS that the separatist leaders will continue to remain under house arrest till the charum of the slain youth of Sopore is observed.
