IndiaTwo Kashmiri Shia clerics, Aga Syed Hassan Al-Mosavi Al-Safavi and Masroor Abbas Ansari, were denied permission to travel to Iran to attend the funeral rites of assassinated Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Both clerics presented valid passports, visas, and confirmed travel arrangements but were blocked by immigration authorities without explanation or written orders. The Shia organization criticized the lack of transparency and called for accountability. Another cleric and former Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti reportedly received an invitation to attend the event, though she has yet to confirm her attendance.
