Srinagar: Police in Baramulla have registered an FIR against persons affiliated with banned Jammu and Kashmir Ittehadul Muslimeen (JKIM) for alleged anti-national activities, officials said here on Thursday.
The IM, headed by Masroor Abbas Ansari, has been found involved in activities that pose a serious threat to the integrity and sovereignty of the nation, they said.
Earlier on March 11, the JKIM was banned by the Centre for five years for their alleged anti-national activities, supporting terrorism and fuelling secessionist activities.
“The organisation’s members have been linked to militancy-related incidents, stone-pelting on security forces, and inciting public unrest against the Union of India,” officials said.
The officials said despite the ban, credible intelligence revealed that certain leaders and members of JKIM continue their anti-national activities. “They have been actively instigating the public against the nation, spreading misinformation and hatred,” they added.
