Srinagar: Indian police have arrested two Kashmiri civilians during an operation in Heerpora area of Shopian district in Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir.<\/p>\n

According to Kashmir Media Service, the duo was arrested during a night raid in Heerpora village. The arrested persons have been identified as Ahsan Ahmad Wagay, a resident of Yarikha in Kulgam, and Rahil Ahmad Butt, a resident of Lasio Bonpora in Kulgam. The police claimed to have recovered anti-India posters from their possession.<\/p>\n

A case has been registered at Police Station Heerpora under the draconian Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA), a law frequently used by Indian authorities to detain Kashmiris on flimsy or fabricated charges.<\/p>\n

Kashmir watchers say such arrests are part of a systematic pattern in IIOJK, where civilians are routinely targeted under various pretexts. Presently, over 4,000 Kashmiris remain imprisoned in Indian jails.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
