The Telegraph, Kolkata: Kashmir police sources said the three looked calm and composed during their 24-hour stay at the police lines.


"They were not like prisoners. Sudipta and Arvind weren't nervous at all but Debjani appeared a little worried. The three took a stroll on the lawns of the compound after they reached here yesterday afternoon,' a Kashmir officer said.


At the police lines, Sen and Arvind were put in one room and Debjani in the other. "An eight-member police team, including two women constables, were put on guard outside their rooms,' he said.


The camp is highly protected and also houses a CRPF company. "In fact, we asked the CRPF cooks to prepare food for them,' the officer said. At Srinagar airport, unlike regular passengers, the three were kept in the airport manager's cabin till their GoAir flight was announced.


Sources said the trio were given a middle seat in different parts of the plane, each flanked by two Bidhannagar cops. Through the 90-minute flight, the sources said, Sen kept his head lowered. He expressed unwillingness to eat anything, saying he was "not comfortable flying'. More
