Srinagar, May 18: A day after daughter of separatist leader Shabir Shah claimed that police along with security forces raided their house and harassed their family, the Jammu and Kashmir on Thursday refuted allegations of harassment and stated that 20 houses were searched in the same area after inputs of movement of terrorists were received.
A police spokesman said there are tweets by daughter of separatist Shabbir Shah claiming harassment during search operation. It is clarified that it was search of 20 houses, when inputs of movement of terrorists in this locality came, he said.
“This has nothing to do with G-20 but is routine in case of inputs. No harassment or harm whatsoever was caused during this search & all SOPs were followed. The lady is strangely linking this with G-20, more strange is an ex CM linking this too with the event, when she herself was privy to such search in particular locality due to terrorist sighting,” the spokesman said.
He said on Wednesday evening, the search team was having 3 DySPs, 4 lady officials & others. Such attempts of forwarding a malicious agenda of attributing routine security measures to an event by the family of a separatist undergoing Jail in a terror funding case shows sheer frustration of some vested interests, the spokesman added.
On Wednesday evening, Sehar Shah shared CCTV footage from inside the house. She wrote in a twitter post that the visuals when army and black cat commandos climbed the walls and jumped inside; entering our house through our kitchen garden. If this was because of G20, this is the highest level of harassment we faced today, she alleged.
