Indian policeman dismissed for concealing marriage to Pakistani woman

SRINAGAR: The Indian government has dismissed a Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) officer deployed in Occupied Kashmir for allegedly concealing his marriage to a Pakistani woman, according to Indian media reports.

The officer, Munir Ahmed, was transferred from Jammu and Kashmir to Bhopal just a day prior to his dismissal.

Authorities claimed his concealment of the cross-border marriage was a violation of service rules and raised “security concerns.”

The dismissal has sparked debate over the growing mistrust and surveillance of personal relationships in sensitive regions like Jammu and Kashmir, especially when they involve connections with Pakistan.
