JKP charge sheets Waheed Parra

SRINAGAR, June 1: The Jammu and Kashmir Police today filed a charge sheet against senior PDP leader Waheed-ur-Rehman Parra in a case related to the alleged nexus between politicians and terror groups in the Union Territory, officials said.
They said that Parra has been charge sheeted by the Criminal Investigation (Kashmir) wing of the Jammu and Kashmir’s CID under various Sections of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act dealing with waging war against the country and threatening peace.
The charge sheet was submitted before the competent court which has taken cognisance of the document.
Parra has been in judicial custody since his arrest earlier this year by the CIK, a branch of CID mandated to probe cases under the UAPA and the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).
The CIK had filed a case last year against unknown politicians and others based on “reliable and confidential sources” who said some political functionaries were misusing their power and helping militants.
It was alleged that these politicians, under a criminal conspiracy, had established clandestine connections and relations with different Pakistan-supported terrorist and secessionist organisations operating in Jammu and Kashmir for a number of reasons. (PTI)
