August 13

The Government forces raided the Ghat Redwani Locality in Khudwani area of South Kashmir’s Kulgam district and arrested a youth during the intervening night of Sunday and Saturday.

Locals told The Kashmiriyat that one person has been arrested in the Khudwani locality when forces raided the Ghat Village around 1230 in the night.

They identified the youth as Aadil Ahmed Lon son of Muzaffar Ahmed Lone and said the Forces including Jammu Kashmir Police barged inside the house of the youth and took him into detention.

The Khudwani belt has been worst hit by unabated arrests in South Kashmir, unofficial estimates suggest that as many as fifty youth from the Quimoh belt have been arrested in the current year and most of them are still behind bars.

Khudwani area of Kulgam which falls in the Tehsil Quimoh remains in news most of the time for Anti India Protests.

The belt was a witness to dozens of pro Freedom Rallies in 2016 attended by lakhs of people.
