Srinagar, March 13 -- A local court in Srinagar on Wednesday recalled a non-bailable warrant hours after issuing it against former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Farooq Abdullah in connection with a case of alleged financial irregularities in J&K Cricket Association (JKCA), considering his condition following an assassination attempt on the veteran leader. Chief judicial magistrate (CJM) Srinagar Tabassum had issued the warrant as Abdullah, 88, failed to appear in court either in person or online. The magistrate also rejected the National Conference (NC) chief's plea seeking an exemption from appearance before the court. "Application for exemption is rejected. The office is directed to issue NBW against accused no. 5 (Farooq Abdullah)," the magistrate ordered. Later in the day, Abdullah's counsel, Ishtiyaq Khan, moved an application seeking the recall of the warrant as medical consultants of the former CM had advised him against any travel after the life-threatening attack on him at Jammu on Wednesday night. "While the applicant survived the attempt, the physical and psychological after-shock has severely exacerbated his pre-existing medical conditions, including fluctuating blood pressure and cardiac distress," the counsel said in the application. The court then recalled the warrant against Abdullah. Last week, the court had directed the framing of charges against the NC chief and others being probed by the CBI. The federal agency has alleged a criminal conspiracy to misappropriate funds provided by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI)....
