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.
Syed Ali Shah Geelani is the chairman of the All-Party Hurriyat Conference. The 90-year-old has reportedly been struggling with a chest infection and has not been responding well to treatment.
Earlier the residences of Hurriyat leaders were raided by the NIA as part of an investigation in a terror-funding case and incriminating evidence including letterheads of terrorist organisations were recovered.
