Srinagar, July 12 (KNS): The All India Lawyers Union (AILU) has condemned and protested against the reported arrest and detention of Senior Advocate N A Ronga, the Adhoc Chairman of the J&K High Court Bar Association’s Kashmir Chapter.
Ronga was reportedly arrested from his home in Srinagar around 1:10 a.m. on Thursday and has been booked under the Public Safety Act (PSA). He has since been transferred to Kot Bhalwal Jail in Jammu.
