India Kashmir Journalists under Seige

Fahad Shah, right, editor-in-chief of Kashmir Walla, works on his computer inside the newsroom at his office in Srinagar, Indian controlled Kashmir, Friday, Jan. 21, 2022. Shah said he has been summoned by police several times and also detained once regarding his stories on Kashmir after the abrogation of article 370. Media has always been tightly controlled in India’s part of Muslim-majority Kashmir. But their situation has gotten dramatically worse since India revoked the region’s semi-autonomy in 2019, throwing Kashmir under a security and communication lockdown. Journalists have been arrested, interrogated and investigated under harsh anti-terror laws. (AP Photo/Dar Yasin)
