Srinagar: In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK), the Indian police have admitted to arresting more than 120 youths in Srinagar following protests against the US-Israeli aggression on Iran and the assassination of the country\u2019s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Khamenei.<\/p>\n
According to Kashmir Media Service, intense protests erupted in Srinagar, including in Zadibal, Lal Chowk, Shalteng, Nogam, Parimpora, Nagin, Bemina, and other areas, against the US-Israeli aggression on Iran and the martyrdom of Ayatollah Khamenei.<\/p>\n
Police sources said that in connection with the protests, cases were registered at Zadibal, Shalteng, Nogam, Nagin, and Bemina police stations, one case at each, while two cases were registered at Parimpora police station. The cases have been filed under various sections of the draconian Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA), as well as provisions related to unlawful assembly and stone-pelting.<\/p>\n
Occupation authorities said that 44 individuals were formally arrested from Srinagar city, while around 80 youths were taken into preventive custody to prevent the protests from spreading. The police confirmed that some of those arrested include minors. Additional forces remain deployed in sensitive areas of the city, and strict monitoring continues.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, independent sources reported that Indian forces have arrested nearly 800 youths, including some girls, from across IIOJK in retaliation for the protests.<\/p>\n
It is noteworthy that the announcement of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei\u2019s assassination triggered massive protests not only in Srinagar but also in other towns of the occupied Kashmir Valley, as well as in the Jammu region and the Leh and Kargil areas of Ladakh. In response, the Indian administration imposed curfew-like restrictions, suspended internet services, and closed educational institutions.<\/p>\n
Yesterday (Friday), senior APHC leader Mirwaiz Umar Farooq was placed under house arrest, and Srinagar\u2019s historic Jamia Masjid was sealed. However, in Budgam, Baramulla, Bandipora and other areas, people held strong protests after Friday prayers, defying the restrictions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
