The CBI may approach the Supreme Court seeking vacation of stay on the trial
against separatist leader Yasin Malik in connection with Rubaiya Sayeed
kidnapping case and killing of four Indian Air Force officers in Jammu and
Kashmir in 1989. The high court of Jammu and Kashmir had earlier stayed the
trial against Malik in the Tada court in Jammu.

It may be recalled that Rubaiya Sayeed, daughter of former chief minister of
J&K, was kidnapped when she was returning home in a local mini bus on
December 8, 1989. She was kidnapped by members of the Jammu Kashmir
Liberation Front (JKLF). The kidnappers had demanded the release of five of
their comrades in exchange for Rubaiya’s release.


The government accepted their demands and freed the jailed terrorists.
Malik, chairman of the JKLF, is accused of masterminding the Rubaiya Sayeed
kidnapping case.


The CBI also investigated killing of four Indian Air Force officers in 1989
in J&K allegedly by JKLF members in which Malik is one of the accused. Both
cases involving Malik were heard in Tada court in Jammu.
