In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, Anjuman Auqaf Jamia Masjid Srinagar said that once again, today, its head and Mirwaiz Umar Farooq, who continues to be under house detention for the last more than three years since August 2019, was not allowed to leave his house to offer Friday prayers and deliver sermon at the historic mosque.
The Anjuman in a statement said additional Indian police and paramilitary personnel were deployed around Nigeen residence of the Mirwaiz since morning.
The Anjuman reminded the authorities to stand upto the statement of Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha that Mirwaiz is free and can go anywhere. It said the people are waiting for the LG’s statement to be executed on ground, as they are eagerly waiting for the release of the Mirwaiz from house detention.—KMS
