Khurram Parvez, a Kashmiri human rights activist, and Irfan Mehraj, a journalist, are released on bail, according to multiple reports. Both have spent years in prison in India-controlled Kashmir before being granted bail. The releases come amid ongoing legal proceedings related to allegations that they financed terrorism, charges that were cited by authorities during their detention.
Both outlets report that the bail terms are restrictive, with “tight curbs” described for their release. The specific conditions are not detailed in the available summaries, but the accounts emphasize that they are not free to move or operate without limitations while the cases continue.
The reports present the development as a procedural step in the legal process rather than an end to the underlying allegations. Authorities have not been reported as withdrawing the terrorism-financing claims, and the men’s cases remain active in the courts. The releases are therefore framed primarily as a change in custody status under court-ordered conditions.
