ISLAMABAD: Foreign Minister (FM) Khawaja Muhammad Asif strongly condemned on Saturday continued efforts of Indian occupation forces to suppress the legitimate Kashmiri struggle for the right to self-determination using inhuman tactics including torture, arbitrary arrests, and extra-judicial killings.
According to a Foreign Office statement, India again violated the rights of Kashmiris to assemble and protest by arresting leaders and workers to prevent them from joining the ‘Anantnag Chalo’ rally held on December 15.
However, raids on residences of Kashmiri leaders, coercive measures, and repression by the Indian authorities could not break the resolve of the brave people for expressing solidarity with occupied Kashmir, he added.
Another abhorrent element of Indian strategy was to implicate Kashmiri leaders in false cases and harass them by their arrests, incarceration and summoning them to courts time and again, Asif said. He added that the recent example was the issuance of notice to senior Hurriyat leader Syed Ali Shah Gillani for appearing before a local court in a 15-year-old case which spoke volumes about high-handedness of Indians.
He further said that the international community must not remain silent over the outrageous violations of due process of law by the Indian government in cases of Kashmiri leaders who were resisting illegal occupation.
