NIA calls in Hurriyat leaders Naeem Khan, Bitta Karate, others for questioning

The National Investigation Agency called in several Hurriyat leaders, including Naeem Khan, Bitta Karate, Gazi Javed Baba and Syed Ali Shah Geelani's son-in-law Altaf Fantoosh, for questioning at its headquarters in New Delhi.

This comes weeks after India Today's sting operation on Khan, Karate and Baba - Hurriyat Truth Tapes - which exposed Pakistan's role in choreographing anarchy in Kashmir Valley by funding Hurriyat leaders.

Three other leaders, Ayaz Akbar, Altaf Ahmad Shah and Raja Mairaj ul din Kalwal, were taken into preventive custody by the Jammu and Kashmir Police over plans for protests in the Kashmir Valley - including one on July 8, the death anniversary of slain Hizbul Mujahideen terrorist Burhan Wani.
