Jammu: Jammu and Kashmir Police will comply with the directions of Chief Minister Mufti Mohammad Sayeed, who has sought release of all political prisoners who do not face any criminal charge.
"Yes, all the directions issued by the government (on release of political prisoners from jails in the state) will be complied with. Let us be assured about it," Director General of Police (DGP), J&K, K Rajendra Kumar told reporters.
He was asked whether the process of release of political prisoners has begun at the level of the police.
"Any direction coming from the government would be looked into and would be worked out," the DGP said.
In a meeting with the police chief here on Wednesday, Sayeed had asked the police to initiate a process of releasing all political prisoners in the State against whom no criminal charges have been registered.
