Yasin Malik returns from Pak, no visa for wife, daughter

New Delhi, March 9: Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF) chief Yasin Malik, who was recently seen sharing the dais with Hafiz Saeed, the mastermind of the 26/11 terror attacks in Mumbai and one of India's most-wanted terrorist, arrived here from Pakistan on Saturday evening. He had gone to the neighbouring country on a 40-day private visit.

Malik's proximity to Saeed at an occasion in Islamabad last month to protest the hanging of 2001 parliament attack convict Afzal Guru had created a huge uproar in the country. Supporters of Shiv Sena, a rightist outfit, protested against Malik on his arrival at New Delhi airport.

Thee JKLF leader said after his arrival from Pakistan that he did not invite Saeed, a Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) member, during his hunger strike against Guru's execution.

Some media reports in India said that the government was thinking of revoking Malik's passport on grounds of national security. A probe would also be conducted into Malik's visit to Pakistan and he would be interrogated by security agencies.
