Yusuf was arrested on Tuesday after he reached the NIA office regarding the summons sent to him by the agency in the terror funding case
Barely a day after the government appointed an interlocutor in Kashmir, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) has arrested Syed Shahid Yusuf, the son of Hizbul Mujahideen chief Syed Salahuddin, on Tuesday. He has been arrested in a 2011 terror funding case.
Yusuf works as a village agriculture assistant in the Jammu & Kashmir government. According to NIA as reported by the news agencies, Yusuf was in contact of Aijaz Ahmad Bhat, the Hizbul Mujahideen terrorist based in Saudi Arabia. The NIA has revealed that Yusuf had received money from Bhat to carry out terror activities in the Valley, the news reports said.
The money is said to have been sent in four instalments between 2011 and 2014. The NIA had reopened its investigations in the matter despite the case being pending for trial in a city court. Four arrests have already been made in the case. Ghulam Mohammed Bhat, Mohammad Sidiq Ghanaian, Ghulam Jeelani Liloo and Farooq Ahmed Dagga are right now in Delhi’s Tihar jail whereas the other two—Mohammad Maqbool Pandit and Aijaz Ahmed Bhat are absconding.
Yusuf was arrested after he reached the NIA office regarding the summons sent to him by the agency. He was asked to appear for questioning. He was also questioned by NIA a few days ago.
Yusuf’s arrest comes right after a day of Dineshwar Sharma’s appointment as interlocutor and his arrest suggests that government although willing to talk to all the “stakeholders” to bring peace in the State, however, does not wish to ease its crackdown on separatist leaders. The National Investigation Agency (NIA), in July, had arrested seven separatist leaders in the terror funding case. Stepping up its investigation against them, the NIA, in September had searched 16 locations in Kashmir and Delhi.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Man waylays schoolgirl in Mathura by-lane, holds her captive by the hand, helpless girl scared, breaks down as passersby don’t help, incident caught on CCTV
The Mathura police to which replied that the investigation into the matter is ongoing and strict action will be taken at the earliest.

In yet another terrible case of harassment, a man in Uttar Pradesh’s Mathura pesters a class 8 girl passing through a by-lane while she was on her way back to home from school.
The incident was caught on the CCTV, the visuals of which are now viral across Internet.
In the viral video of the CCTV visual, the man can be seen harassing a school girl passing, when he intervenes her way, forces her to stop, holds her hands and also pushes her against the wall.
In the video, the helpless girl can be seen crying, trying to save herself to escape from the man’s sickening act.
The man in the video has been identified as Vishnu.
Such videos are a contrast to the government continously marketed schemes like Beti Padhao and Beti Bachao. Reports said, such incidents show the government’s failure in implementing such schemes.
The most surprising part of the story is, it can be clearly seen in the video, the poor girl is crying for help but is being ignored by the passers-by, who did not pay a slight heed in offering help to her and save her.
The Police vigilance is seen absent as people like Vishnu continue eve-teasing and harassing girls in broad daylight without any fear.
Internet users condemning the entire incident filled the comment sections. One user said such acts of harassment should be taken seriously by the police to ensure the safety of women.
The Mathura police to which replied that the investigation into the matter is ongoing and strict action will be taken at the earliest.
Another user wrote, this man should be encountered by the police, while one asked such men should be hanged by the law.
Such cases of crime against women are increasing day by day.

Wrestlers Sakshi Malik, Bajrang Punia refute rumours of withdrawal of protest
Both Malik and Punia denied the news of withdrawing from the protest, they termed it as rumours and also urged people not to spread false news.

Olympians Sakshee Malik and Bharang Punia said today, they will keep fighting for justice and that no wrestler has given up and will not give upon protest.
Both Malik and Punia denied the news of withdrawing from the protest, they termed it as rumours and also urged people not to spread false news. We have resumed our responsibilities in Railways, but we are also working on our plan, Sakshee said.
The wrestlers also met with Home Minister Amit Shah late on Saturday night to ask him to conduct a fair investigation into allegations of sexual harassment made against Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh by seven female wrestlers, which also includes a minor.
It’s been learned that Amit Shah assured the wrestlers that the law still applies to everyone equally. He reportedly said to the wrestlers, let the law take its course.
The wrestlers announced they were going to submerge their medals in the Ganga river in Haridwar last month. They claim that their complaint against the head of the wrestling federation has been largely ignored.
However, they temporarily halted their plan as farmer leader Naresh Tikait intervened.
Earlier on May 28 march, some protesters were taken into custody. The country was shocked and outraged when images of champions Vinesh Phogat and her cousin Sangeeta Phogat being detained by the police surfaced.
The Delhi Police announced that they would not be permitted to stage a protest at India Gate after the wrestlers were denied access to the Jantar Mantar protest location following the crackdown.
Meanwhile, Sakshee Malik’s husband, wrestler Satyawart Kadian, also joined her and said, neither we have made a concession nor will we back down. All of it is false, and we won’t end our protest. He added we shall continue seeking justice while remaining strong. To weaken us, false information is being broadcast. The entire country is against the Delhi Police.
