Srinagar: Hardline faction of Hurriyat Conference on Saturday passed a resolution in support of US-based Kashmiri separatist Ghulam Nabi Fai.

"I can say this with complete faith that he has done nothing wrong. Fai sahab has done nothing wrong. He has lobbied for a genuine cause," Hurriyat hawk Syed Ali Shah Geelani said at a seminar called in support of Fai.

Fai, 62, arrested by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in July 2011, had pleaded guilty to the federal charges of being an ISI agent.
