Hurriyat chief Mirwaiz Umar Farooq sends legal notice to J&K govt against 'illegal house arrest'

After the completion of four years in house detention, Hurriyat chairman Mirwaiz Umar Farooq has now sent a legal notice to the government seeking his release and warned of challenging it in the court if it failed to come up with a positive response, The Indian Express reported.

The legal notice issued by Mirwaiz says that he has been detained 'illegally and without serving any order of detention' by the government.

Mirwaiz’s notice to the government has come a year after J-K’s Lt Governor Manoj Sinha said Mirwaiz is not under house arrest and he is free to move anywhere.

Farooq has been under house detention since August 4, 2019 — a day before the central government abrogated Jammu and Kashmir’s special status.
