Srinagar, June 5 (IBNS) : Kashmiri hardline leader Yasin Malik was arrested while Hurriyat leader Syed Ali Shah Geelani's house was sealed after a meeting of separatists in Srinagar was stopped by police on Monday, media reports said.

The meeting of the separatists was reportedly called to discuss a series of raids conducted by the National Investigation Agency  in Jammu and Kashmir to detect terror funding.

The NIA has raided some 40 places in the last two days across Jammu and Kashmir,  Delhi and Haryana, to crack down on funding of attacks in the Kashmir Valley allegedly by Pakistan-based terror groups.

The locations that were raided were residences and offices of Hurriyat members and big hawala traders suspected to have acted as conduits for terror funding in Kashmir.
