The Jammu and Kashmir High Court has quashed the detention order against Kashmir Walla editor Fahad Shah, observing that in the earlier order, the authority used expressions such as “public order” and “security of the state” with a “wavering mind”.
On April 13, the bench led by Justice Wasim Sadiq Nargal concluded that the detaining authority had “not applied its mind while passing the order of detention” and “the detention order has no basis”.
