The Jammu and Kashmir state investigation agency arrested a Kashmir University PhD scholar on Sunday over a "highly provocative" and "sedition" article he had written for the Kashmir Walla in 2011.
The arrest took place after the agency conducted raids on the home of the scholar, Abdul Aala Fazili, as well as the Kashmir Walla office and the home of its editor Fahad Shah, who had been arrested in February. The raids were in connection with an FIR filed against Fazili, Shah and others over the 2011 article.
