He said Police presented a charge-sheet against Malik in the Court of Sessions judge Sanjay Parihar” here at Baramulla District Court through video conferencing. Malik appeared before the Court through video conferencing today and he was also informed about the charge-sheet which has been filed against him in Baramulla Court.

While presenting the charge-sheet, when the judge gave Yasin Malik a chance to choose his lawyer, the separatist leader said that he would follow his own lead. However, the court did not approve his statement and directed the District Legal Services Authority to provide a lawyer for Malik.

The official said told that since Malik is currently in custody outside Jammu and Kashmir. Therefore, he cannot pursue his case. “The District Legal Services Authority of Baramulla should provide him a lawyer after which the matter can be heard,” he said, adding that the next hearing of the case has been fixed for July 21.
