JAMMU, JULY 15: The Special Investigation Agency on Friday said that NIA Court at Jammu has dismissed bail application of a Kashmir based local journalist Peerzada Shah Fahad and Abdul Aala Fazili who have been arrested on charges of various provisions of Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act and Indian Penal Code.
According to a statement issued by State Investigation Agency, both have been booked for involvement in unlawful activities to propagate the false narrative of secessionist and terrorist to disintegrate the sovereignty and unity of the Union of India and also to motivate the Kashmiri youth exhilarate subversive activities against popular government. The SIA is conducting investigations against them.
The statement said that Abdul Aala Fazili, S/o Late Mohammad Rafi Razili of Humhama Chowk near Airport Road, Budgam wrote an article “The Shackles of Slavery will Break” which was published in the monthly magazine “The Kashmir Wala” as a part of the ongoing strategy to build and propagate the false narrative against Union of India to disrupt the territorial integrity of India by making Jammu and Kashmir secede and annex with Pakistan. The write-up is highly provocative, seditious and intended to create unrest in Jammu and Kashmir to abet the gullible youth to take the path of violence and create communal unrest, it added.
Shah had founded The Kashmir Walla in 2009. He was initially arrested by J&K Police on February 4 and later his custody was taken over by SIA.
The State Investigation Agency (SIA) has been constituted by the UT Government for the investigation and prosecution of terrorism-related cases.
