New Delhi, July 22: CPM today flayed Jammu and Kashmir government for making a "mockery of law" by re-arresting JKLF leader Yaseen Malik who was released by a court in the POTA case.
"It is a mockery of law and a big joke," said CPM leader Mohammed Yusuf Tarigami in a statement.
Tarigami, the Lone CPM member in the state assembly, said the government had lost credibility by detaining Malik under Public Safety Act.
"We have been inisisting that use of POTA or PSA against political opponents by the government is unwarranted," he said.

Tarigami demanded immediate release of Malik "If at all the state administration has any concern for the rule of law."
