SRINAGAR: Residents of Gurpoora Khushki Rainawari staged protest and blocked the main Saidakadal road against the arrest of Mohammad Siddiq Bhat S/o Abdul Rehman Bhat.
Protestors blamed that Siddiq was asked to visit the police station Rainawari from where he was dragged to court and then was taken to Central jail.
Locals said that Mohammad Siddiq, father of seven and a business man by profession, was not building any of the constructions against the orders of the LAWDA or any other concern department.
After raising slogans against police and the LAWDA department protestors took over the streets and blocked the main road at Saida Kadal Rainawari which at a sudden halted the traffic movement causing inconvenience to the general public.
“I don’t even know the reason of my father’s detention by the authorities as he was at home and preparing for his daily routine work mean while he got a call from the concern police station from where he was taken to central jail,” Siddiq’s son Feroz said.
He further said that they demand immediate release of Mohammad Siddiq.
