The National Investigation Agency (NIA) on Wednesday urged the court to give the death penalty to Yasin Malik, a separatist leader from Jammu and Kashmir while the latter said that will not beg for anything and left the decision on court.
Blaming JKLF chief responsible for the exodus of Kashmiri Pandits and killings of four Indian Air Force Officers, NIA had sought death penalty for JKLF chief. Here s the verdict.
A court in New Delhi on Wednesday sentenced the leading Kashmiri pro-freedom leader Yasin Malik to life imprisonment after convicting him of funding terrorism, sparking fresh tensions in the Himalayan region.
Earlier Pakistan s Foreign Ministry spokesperson condemned the conviction of the chief of the banned JKLF in a terror-related case, and now PM Shehbaz Sharif has expressed similar views.
