Srinagar: Expressing deep concern over mysterious killing of a youth Arif Ahmad Sofi son of a “prominent freedom activist” in north Kashmir’s Sopore, Syed Ali Geelani on Saturday said there was no justification for such killings.
“It is unfair and against humanity to kill a person for his specific ideology or affiliations,” Geelani in a statement issued here on Saturday.
Denouncing these killings, Geelani said, “The mysterious killings will lead us to chaos. Teachings of Islam assign extra ordinary worth for human life and saving a human being is like saving of the whole humanity.”
Commenting on these incidents, he said, “nothing with authenticity can be stated about these incidents and it is still a mystery to divulge about those involved in these secretive killings.
There is no justification for such killings. Killing merely on political affiliations or for one’s political ideology is against teachings of Islam.”
