Srinagar, Feb 13 (IANS): Shabir Ahmad Khan, a former minister accused by a woman doctor of sexual harassment, arrived in Srinagar Thursday to present himself before the police.

Khan told reporters at Srinagar airport that he is innocent and would follow the orders of the Jammu and Kashmir High Court and cooperate with the investigation.

The high court Wednesday directed the former minister to appear at the concerned police station Thursday.

A First Information Report was registered against him at the Shaheed Ganj police station Feb 6 following a direction from the chief judicial magistrate of Srinagar.
