Srinagar, Aug 13 : PDP president Mehbooba Mufti has been released after nearly 14 months of detention, government said on Tuesday.

“Ms. Mehbooba Mufti being released,” Rohit Kansal, government spokesman said in a tweet. Sources said that the government revoked her PSA detention order of February 5 which was extended by three months on 31-7-2020.

Mehbooba was among hundreds of people detained in 2019 to prevent protests against the Government of India’s move to divest J&K of its special status through the nullification of the Constitution’s Article 370 and to divide state into two Union territories.
