Mehbooba Mufti has called the raids a a crackdown on dissent.
Srinagar:
The National Investigation Agency (NIA) today carried our searches at nine places, including the premises of a local daily, in Srinagar in connection with a fresh terror funding probe.
These NGOs, the NIA said, were receiving money from undisclosed donors which was then being used to fund terror activities, according to a PTI report.
The agency was assisted by the local police and paramilitary personnel in carrying out the raids.
Mehbooba Mufti, the chief of the Jammu and Kashmir People’s Democratic Party called the action a vicious crack down on dissent.
NIA raids on human rights activist Khurram Parvez & Greater Kashmir office in Srinagar is yet another example of GOIs vicious crackdown on freedom of expression & dissent. Sadly, NIA has become BJPs pet agency to intimidate & browbeat those who refuse to fall in line
