Asian Mail

Srinagar: Authorities have sealed the gates of Jama Masjid Srinagar and cordoned its surroundings and informed that the namaz e Jinazah of Dr. Ghulam Sibtain Masoodi, father-in-law of Mirwaiz-e-Kashmir, Molvi Mohammad Umar Farooq, who passed away yesterday night , and was to take place after zuhr prayers today , will not be allowed at Jama Masjid .

Mirwaiz Manzil strongly condemns the authorities for use and display of force and power even in moments of grief and religious rituals.

The Nimaz-e-Janaza for the departed will now be offered at Masjid Wazir Mohammad Khan Bagat Barzulla at 2pm.

Meanwhile  National Conference in its tweet said, “The decision to disallow the Namaz-e-Janazah of Dr. Sibtain Masoodi at Jama Masjid, Srinagar is deeply regrettable and wrong.”

“Such actions are not only regressive but also demonstrate the hollowness of claims of normalcy in the region.
It is precisely these kinds of steps that reveal the lack of trust the authorities have in their own assertions of peace and stability.
The police in their short-sighted approach, fail to realize that restricting such basic rights only further erodes the trust and goodwill of the people,” reads the post further.
