The Jammu & Kashmir High Court has been moved for the release of 16 members of the National Conference who were detained last year in the wake of the abrogation of Article 370 of the Constitution.

The habeas corpus pleas have been moved by President of the National Conference Party, Dr Farooq Abdullah and his son Omar Abdullah, both of whom were similarly detained but released in March this year.
