Srinagar, Nov 20 (JKNS): The State Investigation Agency (SIA) on Thursday carried out searches at the Kashmir Times office in Jammu after registering a case alleging involvement in anti-national activities and attempts to spread disaffection against the country.
Official sources told news agency JKNS that the SIA has booked Kashmir Times Editor Anuradha Bhasin in a freshly filed FIR. The case, they said, pertains to alleged activities and communications that are under scrutiny for “potential threats to the sovereignty and integrity of India.”
Sources added that SIA teams are examining documents, digital equipment and other material from the office as part of the ongoing investigation. The agency is reportedly likely to question Bhasin regarding her alleged links and activities covered under the FIR.
Officials said the operation is part of the agency’s continuing action against networks suspected of aiding separatist narratives or unlawful propaganda.
The SIA maintains that no platform media or otherwise can be permitted to be used for advancing seditious or anti-national content. (JKNS)
