Fahad Shah, editor of the popular Srinagar-based news portal The Kashmir Walla, was arrested on Friday for “uploading anti-national content” on the social media platform, Facebook, the Jammu & Kashmir Police said.
A police spokesperson said it had been reliably learnt by the Pulwama police that some Facebook users and portals had been “uploading anti-national content, including photographs, videos and posts with criminal intention to create fear among the public”. The police said such content could “provoke the public to disturb law and order”.
