Curfew-like restrictions were imposed in the Kashmir valley, including Srinagar, following the death of separatist leader Syed Ali Shah Geelani on Wednesday night at his house Hyderpora house on the city outskirts.
However, officials said restriction on assembly of four or more persons will continue to prevent Anti National Elements (ANE) to cause any disturbance.
Large number of security force and Armed Police personnel remained deployed to maintain law and order in the valley, including Srinagar, where shops and business establishments remained closed and traffic was off the roads.

The situation in the downtown was different as road blocks with barbed wire continued at several places. All gates of historic Jamia Masjid, where no Friday prayers were allowed for the fourth week yesterday, remained closed. Security forces have parked bullet proof vehicle near the main entrance gate and nobody was being allowed to enter the Masjid area. Jamia market also remained closed.
