Tension in Indian Occupied Kashmir has reached boiling point as the draconian military curfew imposed on the valley by New Delhi enters a 43rd consecutive day.
According to a The Wire, former IoK Chief Minister Farooq Abdullah has been detained by Indian troops under the Public Safety Act.
Abdullah, who has been under house arrest since early August, can now be held in detention by India for a period of up to two years without a trial, suggest reports. His son, Omar Abudllah, is under house arrest too.
On August 5, Indian PM Modi had passed a bill which split occupied Kashmir into two Indian Union territories. A military curfew was imposed in the occupied valley after the decision and thousands imprisoned.
