Srinagar, May 11, KDC: The X (formerly Twitter) handle of PDP leader Iltija Mufti has been withheld, with the platform displaying the message that the account was withheld “in response to a legal demand.”
Users attempting to access her X account in India were shown a notice stating that access to the account has been restricted in compliance with a legal request. Similar notices are generally issued by X when accounts are blocked or withheld under legal provisions or government directives, reported news agency Kashmir Dot Com.
The development comes days after Cyber Police Kashmir registered an FIR against over the sharing of a video clip of late Hurriyat leader Syed Ali Shah Geelani on social media platforms.
Earlier, Cyber Police Srinagar had registered FIR No. 11 under various provisions of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), alleging that certain online content promoted separatist narratives and could disturb public order.
Iltija Mufti had publicly stated that she alone should be held responsible for sharing the video and had urged authorities not to harass those who merely reposted or interacted with her content. (KDC)
