National Investigation Agency (NIA) teams on Saturday raided the residences of some separatist leaders and prominent businessmen in Srinagar in connection with terror funding.
The raids started early in the morning at 14 places in the city, the police said.
Houses of three separatist leaders, Nayeem Khan, Bitta Karate and Qazi Javaid Baba, who confessed to receiving funds from Pakistan to incite trouble in Kashmir in videos released by the India Today TV channel, were raided.
The three were earlier summoned to Delhi by the NIA for questioning.
The raids are ongoing, the police added.
