No Current Property in Nigeen Belongs to Mirwaiz Umar Farooq. Residence Purchased and Built by Mirwaiz Molvi Mohammad Farooq in 1973, Mirwaiz’s Close Kin: A Respected Civil Servant Known for Integrity

JK News Today

Mirwaiz Manzil Nigeen on behalf of Mirwaiz Umar Farooq who is under continued house detention since May 3rd said that a news item carried by certain media is doing the rounds , which claims that ACB Srinagar has filed an “instant “FIR against the Mirwaiz and his kin in the land allotment case of his residence in Nigeen , by the custodian department and if proved Mirwaiz’s house and land will be confiscated by the authorities and he will be evicted . The attempt to malign and harass is clear from this threat in media , when the Mirwaiz received no intimation or notice of this matter . It is part of the same vehement print , electronic and social media propaganda carried out against the Mirwaiz in 2018 when multiple properties including the properties of Anjuman Auqaf Jama Masjid, Anjuman Nusratul Islam , Darul ul khair Mirwaiz Manzil were all attributed to him and later all proved to be false and baseless . These things will not cow the Mirwaiz down.

Fact of the matter is that no property at present -house or land belongs to Mirwaiz Umar Farooq in Nigeen . The residential land and house in which he lives in Nigeen was purchased and built upon by his father shaheed-e-Millat Mirwaiz Molvi Mohammad Farooq in 1973, the same year that Mirwaiz Umar was born. Its boundary walls are the same since that year

After 1990 till yesterday when this sensational news item of Mirwaiz being booked “instantly “by ACB was released to media , he had no inkling of this matter as no information or notice was ever sent or shared with him by the concerned. If as per the authorities there was any issue involved , the concerned as is the procedure should have intimated the Mirwaiz instead of “instantly booking “ him in the case . The motive to malign and defame is apparent.

Mirwaiz and his close kin who is also being implicated , is a well respected civil servant known for his integrity , neither of who have , nor inshallah will do anything that is immoral and illegal .
