Srinagar, June 27 (KMS): Indian troops in their fresh act of state terrorism martyred a Kashmiri youth in Kulgam district of Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, today.
According to Kashmir Media Service, the youth was martyred by the troops during a cordon and search operation in Hoowra area of the district. In another incident, one Indian police man was injured in an attack in the district.
All Parties Hurriyat Conference Vice Chairman, Ghulam Ahmed Gulzar, in a statement issued in Srinagar said that the Hindutva regime led by Narendra Modi had turned Jammu and Kashmir into a land of widows and orphans.
Other Hurriyat leaders including Syed Bashir Andrabi, Khawaja Firdous and Farida Bahenji, said the blasphemous acts of Indian soldiers like forcing Kashmiris to chant “Jai Shri Ram” in mosques have become new policy of the fascist Hindutva regime in the territory.
National Conference Vice President, Omar Abdullah, talking to reporters in Islamabad town disclosed that the soldiers-led incident of “Jai Shri Ram” sloganeering took place in two mosques and not in one mosque in Pulwama district. He demanded a thorough investigation into the sacrilegious acts.
Meanwhile, Indian judges who are going to participate in a so-called three-day conference on law in Srinagar from Thursday have been asked through posters appearing in Srinagar streets to review their decision in view of the sensitivity of the Kashmir dispute. It ill-behooves judiciary members, the posters read, to hold a so-called legal meeting in an illegally occupied territory like Jammu and Kashmir. The posters said the participation in such meetings is a blatant violation of the United Nations Security Council resolutions on Kashmir.
On the other hand, the mother of illegally detained APHC leader Merajuddin Nanda, passed away in Srinagar, last night. She was suffering from depression due to continued detention of her son. Merajuddin Nanda has been languishing in Agra jail in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh for the past many years.
