An NIA special court in Budgam, Jammu and Kashmir, has issued a non-bailable warrant for the arrest of Hizbul Mujahideen chief Mohammad Yousuf Shah, also known as Syed Salah-ud-din, who operates from Pakistan. This directive follows an investigation revealing Shah’s involvement in multiple offenses under the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act. The court emphasized sufficient evidence against him, relating to threats to India’s sovereignty and terrorist conspiracies. Notably, Shah has been on the run since 1993, and his properties were attached by the NIA earlier this year, highlighting ongoing efforts to combat terrorism and disrupt funding channels linked to such activities, ultimately reinforcing India’s commitment to national security.
