National Investigation Agency (NIA) has quizzed three Kashmiri separatists for subversive activities in Jammu and Kashmir. The agency is probing the role of Lashker-e-Taiba chief Hafiz Saeed and hardline Hurriyat leader Syed Ali Shah Geelani in subversive activities in the State.
The NIA team, headed by Additional Director General, had asked Nayeem Khan, Farooq Ahmed Dar alias ‘Bitta Karate’ and Gazi Javed Baba to appear before it for their explanation on an expose on a television channel where they had admitted receiving funds from Pakistan.
The NIA in its Preliminary Enquiry alleged that the leaders were receiving funds from Lashker-e-Taiba chief Hafeez Saeed to carry out subversive activities in the Valley, including pelting security forces with stones, damaging public property and burning schools and other government establishments.
Meanwhile, Hurriyat Conference has suspended National Front chairman Nayeem Khan. He was suspended from the primary membership of Hurriyat Conference with immediate effect.
