Srinagar, Oct 20 (KNS): Anjuman Auqaf said that Jama Masjid Srinagar was closed for Friday prayers for second consecutive day and from Mirwaiz Umar Farooq was also barred from offering prayers.
In a statement, issued to KNS, Auqaf said that said since October 15 Mirwaiz continues to be under house detention and is not allowed to move out.
It reads that such measures belie the claim of normalcy that the authorities make and instead cause great unease and hurt among the Muslims.
The statement also said that Mirwaiz is scheduled to address a Seerat conference tomorrow at Aastan Aaliya Pir Dastgir Sahib Srinagar. (KNS)
