A vocal supporter of Pakistan and its designs in the Kashmir valley, Geelani had made it clear that his agenda is Islamism, packaged and delivered as per Pakistan's wishes. "Hum Pakistani hain aur Pakistan Hamara Hai", was his famous slogan.
Security arrangements were made for the final rites of Geelani (92), who was buried at Srinagar's 'Martyrs' Graveyard'. The police allowed only a limited number of his relatives to attend the funeral.
