*Srinagar: *Srinagar Mayor Junaid Azim Mattu was today put back under house arrest upon his return from New Delhi, where he had gone for medical treatment, reports said.

The central government had restricted his movements in the days following the centre's decision to scrap Jammu and Kashmir's special status on August 5.

In an interview with *NDTV* yesterday, Mattu had criticised the ongoing clampdown on Kashmir and the detention of its political leaders.

He had said that while there may not be any bodies littering its streets, assuming that the region has returned to normal would be "highly unrealistic".
