Srinagar: The High Court of Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir has ordered immediate release of two persons from south Kashmir while quashing their illegal detention under the Public Safety Act (PSA).
According to Kashmir Media Service, underscoring that the authorities’ serious procedural lapses vitiated the detention process and violated the constitutional safeguards guaranteed to the detainees, a bench of Justice Rahul Bharti overturned the detention orders against Asif Ahmad Dar of Pulwama and Amir Wani of Islamabad.
The court directed their immediate release.
