SRINAGAR — Authorities here have booked Tehreek-e-Hurriyat Chairman Mohammad Ashraf Sehrai under Public Safety Act (PSA), sources said.

The elderly leader was arrested from his residence at Baghat Barzulla at 5:30 AM, a top police officer confirmed.

Sahrai, whose Hizb-ul-Mujahideen militant commander son Junaid Sehrai was killed earlier this year, is the chairman of Tehreek-e-Hurriyat, a constituent of main Hurriyat Conference which was until recently headed by Syed Ali Shah Geelani.

The arrest comes less than two weeks after the bombshell resignation of the 90-year-old Geelani as “chairperson for life” of the Hurriyat Conference.
