Leader of Jammu and Kashmir People’s Movement - Shah Faesal

How will Kashmiris channel their anger, and how much support will they get? Stephen Sackur interviews the leader of the Jammu and Kashmir People’s Movement, Shah Faesal.

When the Indian Government revoked the special autonomous status of Jammu and Kashmir, it knew outrage would follow; which is why Delhi has the Muslim majority Himalayan territory in a form of lockdown. Stephen Sackur interviews the leader of the Jammu and Kashmir People’s Movement, Shah Faesal. Since recording this interview, there are now reports that Mr Shah has been detained by the authorities in Delhi and prevented from leaving the country.
