Srinagar mayor placed under house arrest following comments on occupied Kashmir

[DAWN] The mayor of occupied Kashmir

...a disputed territory lying between India and Pakistain. After partition, the Paks grabbed half of it and call it Azad (Free) Kashmir. The remainder they refer to as "Indian Occupied Kashmir". They have fought four wars with India over it, the score currently 4-0 in New Delhi's favor. After 72 years of this nonsense, India cut the Gordian knot in 2019, removing the area's special status, breaking off Ladakh as a separate state, and allowing people from other areas to settle (or in the case of the Pandits, to resettle) there....
's biggest city Srinagar, Junaid Azim Mattu, was put under house arrest on Tuesday for criticising New Delhi's decision to revoke Article 370 and for saying that many people were unable to communicate with their families due to the lockdown, Indian news website The Quint reported.

According to NDTV, Mattu was placed under house arrest after returning from Delhi, where he had gone for medical treatment. The report added that the mayor's movement had previously been restricted following the Indian government's decision to unilaterally revoke Article 370 of its constitution, which granted special autonomy to occupied Kashmir.

Prior to being placed under house arrest, in an interview with NDTV on Monday, Mattu had said that "while there may not be any bodies littering the streets of Kashmir", it would be "highly unrealistic" to assume that it had returned to normal.

"Containing a sentiment in the aftermath of a radical decision by enforcing a clampdown doesn't mean that the situation is normal. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government's policy of detainment seems to be a purely operational one," he was quoted as saying.

"There are still a lot of families that haven't been able to communicate with their loved ones," the mayor added.

#1 What do they need communication for ? They supported the burning of schools and libraries, the bombing of hospitals and police stations, the killing of teachers and students.

They're the ones who wanted to live in a medieval state. In medieval states you don't have internet. You walk to deliver a message.
