Srinagar- Former Chief Minister and National Conference (NC) Vice-President Omar Abdullah Omar Abdullah on Wednesday took pot shots at police for “rushing to the press” with the details if the investigations into the controversial Hyderpora encounter was underway.
“If the SIT is “still investigating the matter” then what was the need to rush to the press with a statement yesterday? I don’t recall reading anywhere that yesterday’s report was an interim one,” tech savvy Omar posted on his Twitter handle.
“As to the “threat of penal action”. Criticising the report, whether interim or final is the right of any citizen & it does not behove J&K police to be trying to threaten people in to submission. If the SIT wants people to believe the report it should report the truth, period,” he wrote in another Tweet.
