Hurriyat (G) said that Hurriyat leadership including Abdul Ahad Parra, Molvi Bashir Irfani, Mohammad Yousuf Naqash, Bilal Ahmad Sidiqui, Syed Mohammad Shafi, Bashir Ahmad Indrabi, Mohammad Rafiq Ganie, Mohammad Yaseen Aataie, Imtiyaz Ahmad Shah, Mohammad Maqbool Maghami, Arshid Aziz, Shakeel Ahmad Bhat, Mohammad Shafi Mir, Khawaja Firdous, Bashir Ahmad Budgami, Mohammad Imran Bhat, Mubashir Iqbal, Showkat Ahmad Khan, Mudasir Ahmad Bhat, Sajad Ahmad Lone and large no of people held peaceful protests in Hyderpora Srinagar, Anchar Soura and Gurpora Suzaith.
“Putting political leaders and activists including women in jails on fabricated charges and slapping Public Safety Act (PSA) repeatedly on political activists to prolong their incarceration is nothing but travesty of justice and democracy,” Hurriyat (G) leaders said.
Hurriyat (M) leaders condemned the plight of prisoners at the hands of jail authorities languishing in other jails and saluted their high spirits of resolve and their sacred sentiments for achieving the mission of right to self-determination.
They strongly condemning the slapping of 36th PSA on Masarat Aalam Bhat and said that it will not be different from the previous ones and slapping another PSA on Masarat Alam proved it right, beyond doubt that the state of Jammu and Kashmir is directly ruled, rather over-ruled, by Sangh Parivaar, sitting in Delhi and local supporters, even if they want, have no authority or say in any of the affairs.
Hurriyat (M) made a fervent appeal to the United Nations Human Rights Commission and all other human rights organizations of the world to take a serious note of the gross violations of human rights at the hands of forces in Jammu and Kashmir, especially with reference to prisoners of conscience belonging to Jammu and Kashmir.
