Former Chief Minister of Jammu and Kashmir Mehbooba Mufti was released on October 13 after spending more than a year in detention.
She had been detained on August 5, 2019 as the Central government announced its decision to scrap J&K's special status by diluting Article 370 of the Constitution.
The PDP chief's release was announced on Twitter by J&K administration spokesperson Rohit Kansal.
Mehbooba's daughter, who runs her Twitter account, confirmed the news.
Former J&K CM and Mufti's political rival Omar Abdullah welcomed the development.
Omar and his father Farooq Abdullah had also been detained last year.
They were released in March.
A plea challenging Mufti's detention was being heard by the Supreme Court.
