Srinagar, May 18 (KNO) : Jammu Kashmir Liberation Front’s (JKLF) Zonal president Noor Muhammad Kalwal was booked under Public Safety Act (PSA) and was shifted to Mattan Jail Islamabad toady, a spokesman said on Saturday.
Kalwal as per spokesman was arrested by police on 30th April 2019 and from then he was lodged at police station Kothi-bagh, adding that today, police informed him of being booked under PSA and immediately shifted him to Islamabad Jail. Moreover, the PSA of another JKLF leader Zahoor Ahmad Butt who is incarcerated at the same jail from last many months has also been extended by three months by authorities yesterday.
Terming slapping of PSA on Noor Muhammad Kalwal and extension of same draconian law on Zahoor Ahmad Butt as ‘travesty of justice’, JKLF chief spokesman Muhammad Rafiq Dar said that it is shameful and unlawful too on the part of civil administration which is serving as subservient to the police and singing PSA orders without applying their mind and conscience.
He said that in holy month of Ramadhan and at the eve of Eid like festivals, inmates are freed from jails but in Kashmir, jails are being filled with more and more inmates and blood is being spilled ruthlessly by anti-Muslim and anti-Kashmiri rulers without any remorse or shame.(KNO)
