Kashmir police prevent unrest, file cases

Police in Kashmir prevented disruptions during Muharram processions, leading to the filing of legal cases against individuals. This action follows concerns raised by a Shia leader regarding police actions against Gaza supporters. The Shia leader, Aga Ruhullah Mehdi, criticized the police for filing FIRs against those expressing support for Gaza during the processions. Police stated that individuals violated procession conditions, attempting to provoke unrest and disrupt public order, prompting legal action. Muharram processions took place in Srinagar and Budgam, with authorities warning against anti-national or sectarian activities. Police also cautioned against waving flags of banned organizations during the processions.
