Syed Ali Shah Geelani heckled at seminar in Delhi

Monday March 26, 2012 08:36:29 PM, IANS

New Delhi: Prominent Jammu and Kashmir separatist leader Syed Ali Shah Geelani was heckled at a seminar in north Delhi by Akhil Bhartiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) activists, police said Monday.

As soon as Geelani, a pro-Pakistan hardline separatist leader, arrived at the venue in the Civil Lines area at around 4 p.m. to attend the seminar, ABVP protesters gathered around him and shouted slogans and chanted 'Vande Matram', demanding that he leave the venue.

Geelani had arrived for the seminar organised by the Centre for the Study of Developing Societies (CSDS).

"Geelani was saved from any physical attack as the police escorted him inside the venue," said a senior police official.
