Srinagar, Mar 18: Hurriyat Conference (M) on Monday said that its Chairman Mirwaiz Umar Farooq has sent a reply to the NIA summon dated 14 March received on 15 March 2019 to come to New Delhi on 18 March, through his counsel.
A Hurriyat (M) spokesperson in a statement issued said that Mirwaiz has reiterated that he is willing to cooperate in the matter but has asked for the venue for examination to be shifted from Delhi to Srinagar as the concerns and apprehensions regarding travel to Delhi expressed by him through his counsel in the earlier response dated 10.3.2019 continue to remain so.
The counsel further mentioned in the reply that his client has informed him that on several occasions earlier, many persons have been examined by the agency at Humhama, Budgam while conducting the investigation.
He sees no reason why his client cannot be examined in a similar manner, the spokesperson said.
