J&K: After the National Investigative Agency (NIA) conducted raids on the residences of separatist leaders on Sunday, J&K Police has prevented a meeting that was supposed to be held at Hurriyat leader Syed Ali Shah Geelani’s residence.
Moments after the meeting was prevented, separatist leader Yasin Malik was arrested by the police.
The raids were conducted by the agency in the backdrop of a TIMES NOW investigation, exposing the nexus between Pakistan’s ISI and Hurriyat leaders. The report highlights how Hurriyat received funding from Pakistan ISI via conduits.
"During the searches, a few thousand Pakistani rupees and currencies belonging to the UAE and Saudi Arabia as well as incriminating documents were found and seized," an NIA spokesperson said.
The residences of Ayaz Akbar, spokesperson of the Tehreek-e-Hurriyat, Syed Ali Shah Geelani, Peer Saifullah were raided. The warehouse of a businessman was also raided in Jammu under suspicion of being involved in a cross-border trade scam.
The NIA alleges that since the Cross-Line of Control trade, at Uri in Kashmir and Chakan-da-bad in Jammu, was based on a barter system, some businessmen "under- or over-invoiced" their bills, and the difference in payment was later used for promoting subversive activities in the valley, according to the Press Trust of India.
The NIA had raided 29 locations in the Valley on Saturday and recovered unaccounted account books, Rs 2 crore in cash and letterheads of banned terror groups such as the Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Taiba and Hizbul Mujahideen.
Geelani-led Hurriyat Conference expelled Khan in the wake of the sting operation. TIMES NOW accessed documents that proved the separatist leaders taking money.
The raids were carried out following the questioning of three separatist leaders -- Nayeem Khan, who was seen on television during a sting operation purportedly confessing to receiving money from Pakistan-based terror groups, Farooq Ahmed Dar alias 'Bitta Karate' and Gazi Javed Baba of Tehreek-e-Hurriyat, in the national capital last month.
