Police question MDM head, release him on 50000 surety bond Pamphlets advocating release of HM's Faktu 2/6/2016 11:20:58 PM Asif Iqbal Naik Kishtwar, Feb 6: Police today questioned district in charge of Muslim Deeni Maaz (MDM) who had allegedly circulated pamphlets in Jamia Masjid here and its surrounding areas, advocating release of HM activist Qasim Faktu, husband of Dukhtaran-e-Milat head Asiya Indrabi. After a report about the circulation of pamphlets appeared in the today's edition of Early Times, police swung into action and detained Nisar Ahmed Sheikh alias Nisar Molvi, son of Ghulam Mohammad Sheikh of Ghumas Keshwan, who during his sustained questioning, allegedly confessed that he was the head of the organization and had circulated the pamphlets. Sources said Nisar Molvi told police that he had received these pamphlets from Srinagar and also allegedly named the person, besides the driver, who hails from Kuchhal area of Kishtwar, who had transported the pamphlets from Srinagar to Kishtwar and handed over to him. Later, police produced him before the district magistrate who transferred the case to the tehsildar, Kishtwar. After going through the case, the tehsildar granted him bail after he furnished the surety bond of Rs 50,000. He was also directed to cooperate with police during investigation into the case. Police had now launched a hunt for the man who supplied the pamphlets to Nisar Molvi and for the driver who transported them. A senior police officer said investigation of the case was still going on and added that an FIR could also be registered in this case. The accused was already an OGW and his activities were under surveillance, he added. He said nobody would be allowed to vitiate the peaceful atmosphere in the district and assured that stern action would be initiated against those involved in such activities. The pamphlets highlighted the life history of Faktu who was in jail for the past 23 years in connection with a murder case. He is jailed for life by the Supreme Court.   Share This News with Your Friends on Social Network     Comment on this Story
