J&K: Shah Faesal finally released from detention

The Jammu and Kashmir administration finally released Shah Faesal after a nearly nine month long detention.
Two senior PDP leaders – Sartaj Madni, the uncle of former Chief Mininster Mehbooba Mufti and Peer Mansoor Hussain – have also been freed.
Faesal's sudden release could be seen as the revive of political process in Jammu & Kashmir.
The political activities in the Valley stand frozen since last August after the Central Government read down the special provisions of Jammu & Kashmir and divide it into two Union Territories.
Like hundreds of political leaders, including three former chief ministers, Faesal was taken into the preventive custody and later booked under Public Safety Act (PSA).
