Fahad Shah, the founding editor of The Kashmir Walla, was summoned to J&K police headquarters & questioned about their video & journal coverage of the devastation in Nawakadal, Srinagar yesterday. The Kashmir Walla reporting is quite sensitive to the human suffering involved for civilians in hunt to kill operations which the J&K police would see as ‘anti-national’. The interrogation is an intimidation tactic & we should be concerned about the safety of the journalists involved.
Stand with Kashmiri journalists & demand the end of harassment & the immediate, unconditional withdrawal of all Indian forces from Kashmir.
