Srinagar (J&K) – An attempt was made to vitiate the atmosphere in Srinagar just before the separatist leader convicted terrorist Yasin Malik was sentenced in a Delhi NIA court on 25th May 2022. A clash broke out between Yasin Malik’s supporters and the Police in Srinagar’s Maisuma area. Yasin Malik’s supporters pelted stones at the security forces. The administration suspended internet services in Srinagar. The city was also closed after the stone-pelting incident; however, the violent protests intensified after Yasin Malik was awarded life imprisonment by the Court in terror funding charges. After the sentencing verdict was issued, Islamists came to the streets to register their protest against the sentence.
