💨 Abstract

The high court of jammu and Kashmir and ladakh has directed the UT administration to pay a compensation of Rs 5 lakh to the former spokesman of banned jamaat-e-islami outfit advocate alias Zahid. The petitioner was first arrested in 2019, but his preventive detention was quashed by the court in July that year. He was detained again under preventive laws within six days, but the order was set aside by the courts in 2020.
