Srinagar: Paying rich tributes to Shaheed Tufail Matto and martyrs of 2010, the Hurriyat Conference chairman Syed Ali Geelani has reiterated the pledge to take the mission of martyrs to its logical end. “The sacrifices of Kashmiri martyrs will not be allowed to go waste and their mission will be accomplished at all costs,” said Geelani.
“We will not forget the warm blood of our young martyrs and we will strive hard to achieve the goal for which they have sacrificed their lives,” said Geelani and added that armed forces killed 125 innocents like Zahid Farooq, Wamiq Farooq and Tufail Matoo in cold blood murder. While expressing displeasure over the state authority’s failure in bringing culprits to book, Geelani said: “The cops involved in brutal killing of Tufail Matoo in downtown Srinagar during 2010 peaceful agitation are still roaming scout free.” He further said: “It was a cold-blooded murder and those culprits who killed innocent Tufail Matoo must be punished.”
He said there was neither check nor are those involved in innocent killings tried for their heinous crimes. They said instead awarded and rewarded, Geelani said. “They feel free to kill whosoever comes in their way, he added.
Blaming local stooges for these merciless killings, Geelani said that as there was no system to curtain the inhuman and heartless activities of occupied forces and “these killers enjoy impunity under the garb of draconian laws, thus there seems no letup in prevailing bloodshed in state.”
