Kashmir leader 'denied' Pakistan visa

A leading politician in Indian-administered Kashmir has been denied a visa to visit Pakistan, her spokesman has said.

Mehbooba Mufti, leader of the main opposition People's Democratic Party (PDP), had been invited to a conference in Islamabad, her spokesman added.

Ms Mufti has visited Pakistan twice in recent years, her spokesman said.

There has been no response so far from the Pakistan high commission in India to the statement.

Ms Mufti spokesman said that the leader had been invited by an NGO to a conference in Islamabad.

Several other pro-India Kashmiri leaders, including chief minister Omar Abdullah, have also visited Pakistan recently.
