Srinagar, April 17 (KMS): In occupied Kashmir, the Joint Association of Kashmiri Affected Families (JAKAF) has said that India will never succeed in suppressing Kashmiris’ ongoing liberation struggle through use of brute force.
The JAKAF spokesman in a statement issued in Srinagar condemned the stepped up human rights violations in the occupied territory by the authorities and the continued illegal detention of Kashmiri Hurriyet leaders and activists languishing in different jails and interrogation center in and outside the occupied territory.
He took strong exception to the Indian army Chief’s opposition to the repeal of draconian law, Armed Forces Special Powers Act (AFSPA), which was the real cause of gross human rights violations in the occupied territory. He said that in the presence of the black law human right situation couldn’t be improved in occupied Kashmir.
The spokesman urged India to create conducive atmosphere for resolving the Kashmir dispute by repealing the black laws including the AFSPA in the territory. He condemned the killing of a 17 years old student Zubair Ahmad Butt in Sopore and a 70 years old man in Handwara by Indian troops.
The spokesman also stressed initiation of composite dialogue between Pakistan and India and the inclusion of true Kashmiri leadership in the talks process so that an amicable solution of the Kashmir dispute could be brought about.
