PDP Chief Mehbooba Mufti has said that at a time when political parties in JK are colletively trying to protect the special status of the state, questioning of NC chief Farooq Abdullah in an ‘old case’ raises suspicions and questions.
In a tweet, the former Chief Minister said:
JK cricket scam is an old case that’s been under investigation for quite sometime. ED questioning Farooq sahab at a time when J&K mainstream parties are collectively standing up to protect its unique identity raises suspicions & questions.

In another tweet, Mehbooba added:
Misusing central agencies to harass & intimidate those who dissent or don’t fall in line has become quite blasé & brazen.

Earlier in the day, the Enforcement Directorate questioned Abdullah in connection with the Jammu and Kashmir Cricket Association (JKCA) scam. He was being questioned in Chandigarh.
