Iltija Mufti Summoned Over Alleged Assault During Article 370 Protest in SrinagarPreviousNext

PDP leader Iltija Mufti has been summoned by police for investigation into an alleged assault on a police officer during a protest against the abrogation of Article 370 in Srinagar. Police claim she bit an officer's forearm amid a scuffle as demonstrators attempted to march despite restrictions. Iltija Mufti was hospitalized after alleging police manhandling and later discharged. The protest, led by Mehbooba Mufti, demanded restoration of Jammu and Kashmir's special status, with police citing attempts to block roads and maintain order.
