Mehbooba Mufti’s Sister Identifies Terrorist Yasin Malik As Her Kidnapper

Srinagar: Rubaiya Sayeed, daughter of former Jammu & Kashmir chief minister Mufti Mohammed Sayeed, has identified JKLF chief Yasin Malik and three others as her abductors.

Rubaiya, who is Mehbooba Mufti’s sister, was kidnapped in 1989. Yasin was an accused in the kidnapping case.

Rubaiya was released in exchange for five terrorists.

Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) took over the case in 1990. But this was the first time that Rubaiya was asked to appear before the special CBI court in connection with the kidnapping case.

Sayeed, who now lives in Tamil Nadu, is listed as a prosecution witness by CBI.

Yasin Malik was sentenced to life imprisonment on May 25 by a special NIA court in a terror funding case.
