In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, Indian police and troops arrested over a dozen youth in different parts of the territory.
The police arrested the youth, including Aqib Ahmed, Mufeez Ahmed, Bilal Ahmed Zaboo, Sajjad Ahmed, Muhammad Iqbal, Showkat Ahmed and Aadil Rashid Butt in different areas of Pulwama and Islamabad districts.
On the other hand, Indian police claimed to have arrested 476 persons since authorities imposed lockdown in Jammu district in wake of second wave of coronavirus and registered 375 cases.
Meanwhile, the mother of a 28-year-old youth died of cardiac arrest hours after her son was detained by Indian troops during a cordon and search operation in the Biminipora area of Shopian district.
