The son of Hizbul Mujahideen, the head of Hizbul Mujahideen from the Delhi High Court and a son of Global Terrorist Syed Salauddin declared from the US, got bail, while the second son was refused by the Delhi High Court.

A bench of Justices Naveen Chawla and Shalinder Kaur in the High Court dismissed the bail plea of martyr Yusuf, saying that the evidence presented against them pointed to a major terrorist funding network and conspiracy. The court said that serious allegations of the terrorists reaching the funds to Jammu and Kashmir from hawala channels cannot be ignored.

Martyr Yusuf alleged serious allegations in the case

According to the Delhi High Court, Shahid Yusuf took money from absconding terrorist Ejaz Ahmed Bhatt, knowing that this fund would be used to promote terrorist activities in India. At the same time, it is also alleged against Shahid that he traveled abroad with fake identity passports and later destroyed the document.

The High Court said that there is every possibility of their absconding, eradicating evidence and affecting the witnesses. At the same time, the court granted bail to Syed Salauddin’s second son Syed Ahmed Shakeel on the basis of delay in jail for nearly 7 years and trial. The High Court said that the main allegation against him is only to get funds, not to use it in terrorist activities.

Investigating agency NIA’s serious allegations

Shakeel is a government employee and worked as a Senior Lab Technician in the Department of Biology at Sher-e-Kashmir Institute of Medical Sciences, Saura, Srinagar. According to the investigating agency NIA, the case is related to the terrorist funding network registered in 2011, in which terrorists sitting in Pakistan used to send money to Jammu and Kashmir through hawala channels.

This fund was used to promote separatist and terrorist activities in collaboration with some operatives present in India. Shahid Yusuf was arrested in October 2017, while Shakeel was arrested from his house in Srinagar on 30 August 2018. Shakeel was accused that he had taken money from the absconding accused Ejaz Ahmed Bhatt through the Western Union.

Also, his name was also come from the cadres present in Saudi Arabia to raise, take and send funds for the terrorist organization.
