Srinagar (Jammu and Kashmir) [India], Feb 26 (ANI): The National Investigation Agency (NIA) conducted raids at the residence of JKLF Chief Yasin Malik here on Tuesday morning. Adequate security is deployed outside the residence while NIA officials conducted the raid.
Yasin Malik was detained by the police late on Friday night.
