Earlier this week, the Jammu and Kashmir state investigation agency filed a chargesheet against the Kashmir Walla editor Fahad Shah and research scholar Abdul Aala Fazili in a case of “narrative terrorism” – a report filed by Fazili for Shah’s website 11 years ago.
The chargesheet was filed on October 13. Scroll quoted the agency as saying: “The case relates to narrative terrorism wherein as part of a criminal conspiracy to spread terrorism and create a false narrative, accused Fazili, by his highly provocative and seditious write-up, intended to create unrest, and aid and abet the gullible youth to take the path of violence.”
