The meeting between Jethmalani and Geelani, chairman of the hardline faction of the Hurriyat Conference, was apolitical, amalgam spokesman Ayaz Akbar said.
"They mostly discussed the problems being faced by Kashmiri prisoners," he said.
Jethmalani, who is pleading the case of Hurriyat leader Ghulam Mohammad Bhat lodged in Tihar jail, has come here to visit the scene from where he was arrested in January 2011.
"From the airport, the noted lawyer straightway drove to Geelani's residence where the two leaders discussed in detail the plight of Kashmiri prisoners and the status of their cases," Akbar said.
Geelani thanked Jethmalani for showing interest in the cases of Kashmiri prisoners and providing legal assistance to them, he said.
Geelani highlighted various issues, including his house arrest during the meeting with Jethmalani who assured him that he would challenge the restrictions on his movement in the Supreme Court.
"Jethmalani expressed suprise over the continuous house arrest of Geelani without any written order and said he will challenge this in the Supreme Court," Akbar said.
