Innocent Kashmiri’s facing worst phase of tyranny, HR blatantly being violated: Jama’at-e-Islami

By Kashmir Age Online On Jan 23, 2019

Sriangar (VMS): Jama’at-e-Islami Jammu and Kashmir vehemently condemns the use of unjustified force by the unruly forces personnel upon the journalists who were performing their professional duties in Shopian and firing of pellets thereby injuring a number of innocent people including some media persons.

This action is not only inhuman but quite against the basic fundamental rights particularly the freedom of speech. In another such immoral and inhuman incident, teenager from Haba-kadal Srinagar Mohammad Younis got seriously injured when a party of Indian forces personnel threw stones and bricks upon him without any apparent and just cause.

The innocent injured has received a head injury and is lying in a hospital in a very critical condition. In a statement to Valley Media Service, Jama’at appeals the world community to take serious note of the state terrorism the hapless people of Kashmir are facing and take effective measures to bring the violators to justice as per the international law relating thereto. Jama’at extends its deep sympathy with these victims of state high handedness and wishes an early recovery of the injured.
