Separatist leader Shabir Shah's supporters on Friday waved Pakistan flags at a rally in Jammu and Kashmir's Anantnag District.

This is the latest in a series of such incidents across the Kashmir Valley and comes days after separatist leader Mirwaiz Umar Farooq's supporters raised Pakistan flags at a rally in Srinagar's old city area.

The rally was held on the eve of death anniversary of Farooq's father.

Earlier, separatist leader Masarat Alam had sparked a controversy for raising pro- Pakistan slogans at a rally attended by him on April 17.

Alam was later arrested in the case registered in the Budgam Police Station in connection with his provocative actions during the rally.
