Father of activist and former JNU Students' Union vice-president Shehla Rashid on November 30 wrote to J&K DGP Dilbag Singh, saying he feared for his life. He said he is being threatened by his daughter's armed "bodyguard" into leaving the family’s Srinagar home because he disapproved of her political and financial dealings. Abdul Rashid Shora sought an inquiry into his daughter's finances, accusing her of receiving Rs 3 crore from two people under investigation for terror funding. Shora said Shehla had been first offered the amount through him to join a party that was to be floated by former IAS officer Shah Faesal. While he refused, his daughter allegedly accepted the "deal". Shehla responded to the allegations with a statement on Twitter about her "abusive and violent" father getting back at her for getting him legally restrained from entering their home at Lal Nagar in Srinagar's Chanapora neighbourhood.
