Complete shutdown observed in occupied Kashmir on Saturday, against the arrest of the Executive Director of Kashmiri American Council, Dr Ghulam Nabi Fai in the US and against a gang rape of a woman by Indian troops in Kulgam. Call for the shutdown has been given by veteran Kashmiri Hurriyet leader, Syed Ali Gilani, KMS reported.
On the other hand, the occupation authorities continue to place the APHC Chairman Mirwaiz Umar Farooq and other Hurriyet leaders including Syed Ali Gilani, Shabbir Ahmed Shah and Zafar Akbar Butt under house arrest to prevent them from visiting Kulgam.
