Srinagar, May 2 High Court today upheld the detention order of an Over Ground Worker (OGW) citing that he is involved in anti-national and subversive activities.
Justice M Chowdhary dismissed the plea of detenue-Shoib Akhter challenging his PSA. He was detained by District Magistrate Kulgam vide detention order dated 25.06.2022 in order to prevent him from acting in any manner prejudicial to the security of the State.
“Having glance at the grounds of detention, it is clear that the detenue is involved in subversive and anti-national activities and did not desist himself from indulging in such activities. His inclination towards secessionist elements gave him a place in the banned organization (LeT), of which he was an active member”, Justice Chowdhary said.
“If the detenue is allowed to remain at large at this juncture, he will provoke more and more youth to indulge in anti-national, criminal and subversive activities and there is every possibility that the presence of detenue will endanger the life and liberty of peace loving citizens especially the minority community/non-locals”, read the grounds of detention.
