Anjuman Auqaf Jamia masjid said that Mirwaiz Umar Farooq was again not allowed to offer Friday prayers and deliver the sermon at central Jama Masjid Srinagar . This is the second consecutive Friday when he has not been allowed to come to Jama masjid . Infact Mirwaiz’s movement has been completely curbed since last Friday ,while Journalists or media persons are barred from meeting him .

Anjuman said that this repeated detention of the religious head and especially keeping him
away from Jama Masjid on Fridays is very disturbing and upsets the people deeply , but in the present times has to be borne with patience.
