Terrorist Yasin Malik, who is one of the accused in the case, appeared before the court from the Tihar jail through video conferencing, once again insisting on his physical appearance to cross-examine the witness.
A special court in Jammu on Wednesday asked the CBI to physically produce before it JKLF chief Yasin Malik, who is lodged in Delhi's Tihar Jail, on October 20 in connection with the 1989 kidnapping of Rubaiya Sayeed, daughter of then Union home minister Mufti Mohammad Sayeed. The special court issued the production warrant to the CBI for cross-examining witnesses in the case.
Monika Kohli, the standing counsel for the CBI, said the court issued the production warrant despite an objection by the agency on the ground that there are specific directions of the High Court that all accused be presented through video conference.
Rubaiya Sayeed was present in the court during the hearing and told it she never looked back on the horrific incident as she tried to live a normal life.
