Early Times Report
Srinagar, July 31: National Conference president Farooq Abdullah received support from an unexpected quarter on Wednesday, with his arch rival, PDP chief Mehbooba Mufti, questioning his interrogation by the Enforcement Directorate. "JK cricket scam is an old case that's been under investigation for quite sometime," Mufti posted on Twitter. "ED questioning Farooq sahab at a time when J&K mainstream parties are collectively standing up to protect its unique identity raises suspicions & questions."
The Peoples Democratic Party president alleged that central agencies were being used to harass and intimidate those who dissent or do not fall in line, adding that it had become "blasé & brazen". Mufti's reaction come after the ED questioned Abdullah earlier in the day in connection with a money-laundering case regarding alleged financial irregularities in the Jammu and Kashmir Cricket Association (JKCA). |
