NEW DELHI: The home ministry has recommended suspension of eight Twitter accounts, including that of separatist leader Syed Ali Shah Geelani .

The eight accounts are @kashmir787 (Voice of Kashmir), @Red4Kashmir (Madiha Shakil Khan ), @arsched (Arshad Sharif), @mscully94 (Mary Scully), @sageelaniii (Syed Ali Shah Geelani), @sadaf2k19, @RiazKha61370907 and RiazKha723.
