Following orders from the National Investigative Agency (NIA), the Jammu and Kashmir police on Wednesday detained three Hurriyat (G) leaders.
The three leaders detained have been identified as Ayaz Akbar, Altaf Shah and Mehraj-ud-Din Kalwal. They will be interrogated by the NIA in New Delhi over their alleged involvement in receiving funds from Pakistan to sponsor unrest in the Kashmir Valley.
Earlier the month, the NIA had initiated raids at 23 places in Kashmir, Delhi and Haryana in connection with funding received from Pakistan for terror and violence in the Valley.
The agency conducted search at the residences and offices of the separatist leaders.
