PDP lawmaker showers praise on slain militant commander

A lawmakers from the ruling PDP has disclosed that he had been in regular touch with slain Hizbul Mujahideen commander Burhan Wani whose killing sparked a violent agitation in Kashmir Valley in 2016.

"I feel myself proud for having lunch with Burhan Wani," said Mushtaq Ahmed Shah, who represents Tral constituency in the Legislative Assembly.

Shah described Burhan as "a nice person." He said, "I once had lunch with him and had good connections with him."

"I have not served lunch to any Ikhwani. I have shared the table with Burhan Wani, who was globally recognized as a Kashmiri leader. It is not a crime for me that I had lunch with Burhan Wani," Shah told Early Times.

Before his death along with two assocates in an encounter with army on July 8 last year, Burhan figured among the "most wanted militants" in Kashmir and carried a Rs 10 lakh bounty on his head.

MLA or a separatist?
"I have not served lunch to any Ikhwani. I have shared the table with Burhan Wani, who was globally recognized as a Kashmiri leader. It is not a crime for me that I had lunch with Burhan Wani."

When asked about reports suggesting that the National Investigation Agency (NIA) will soon launch a probe to find who was in touch with Burhan Wani, the PDP lawmaker said, "I have no hesitation to face NIA. I think I don't have done anything wrong."

Notably, soon after Burhan Wani was killed, the PDP MLA had sparked a major controversy with his statement. He had termed Burhan Wani "a martyr, not a terrorist."

"People used to love Burhan because of his great and pious character. He was a kind and pious person, and being a resident of Tral too, I know how much people loved and respected him," Shah had said.
