Police on Saturday arrested elder son of Hurriyat conference (G) chairman, Syed Ali Geelani and lodged him in Humhama.
Geelani’s younger son Syed Naseem Geelani said that his elder brother Dr Nayeem Geelani was arrested early today.
After the arrest of Nayeem, Naseem himself was barred from meeting his ailing father.
A large contingent of police and paramilitary personnel had tightened the cordon around Geelani’s residence at Hyderpora to foil his “address to nation” programme at 11 AM.
Geelani is undergoing a continuous house detention.
