New Delhi, Sep 16 (UNI/IBNS) Jammu and Kashmir former chief minister Farooq Abdullah was detained under the public safety act, the Centre said on Monday.

The development came at a time when a habeas corpus petition seeking Abdullah's presence in the Supreme Court was filed by Tamil Nadu politician Vaiko.

On Aug 5, speaking on the absence of Abdullah, Union Home Minister Amit Shah announced in Parliament that the National Conference leader had missed the session of his own.

Abdullah has been detained at a time when Jammu and Kashmir witnessed several major changes taken by the Indian government which includes the scrapping of Article 370 that gave special status to the region.

Two former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Ministers- Omar Abdullah and Mehbooba Mufti- have been kept under detention.
