Description
Images of bookshops in Srinagar, in Indian-administered Kashmir. Indian police have raided dozens of bookshops in the region and seized hundreds of copies of books by an Islamic scholar, sparking angry reactions by Muslim leaders.
Police said searches were based on "credible intelligence regarding the clandestine sale and distribution of literature promoting the ideology of a banned organisation". Officers did not name the author, but store owners said they had seized literature by the late Abul Ala Maududi, founder of the Islamist political party Jamaat-e-Islami. IMAGES
