Special NIA court has issued non-bailable warrant against Hizbul Mujahideen leader Syed Salahuddin. The court has issued this non-bailable warrant in a 2012 terror case, which was registered at Police Station Budgam under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act and Section 506 RPC.
The warrant has been issued after the court found that Salahuddin, a resident of Soibo, Budgam, had fled to Pakistan to avoid arrest. The court found that the case involved offenses under sections 13, 18, 20 and 39 of the UAEPA and the material collected by the investigating officer prima facie links Salahuddin to terrorist activities.

Relying on Section 73 of CrPC, the Special Judge has directed Jammu and Kashmir Police to arrest Salahuddin in connection with FIR No. 331/2012 and complete further legal formalities including trial in absentia after sanction. Earlier, the NIA court had formally declared him a fugitive and ordered him to appear in the court before August 30, 2025.
