Srinagar: The government on Tuesday extended the detention under Public Safety Act (PSA) of former J&K chief minister Mehbooba Mufti and senior National Conference (NC) leader Ali Mohammad Sagar and People’s Democratic Party (PDP) leader Sartaj Madani.
Sources told news agency KNO that the J&K Home Department this evening extended the PSA detention of Mufti, Sagar and Madani by three months.
Mehbooba is under detention ?since August 5? when the BJP-led central government abrogated J&K’s special position and bifurcated it into two Union Territories.
Sagar and Madani were detained under PSA on February 6 this year after completing six months under detention at SKICC and MLA Hostel, which were turned into sub-jails on August 5 last year.
