Srinagar): Chairman of Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF), Muhammad Yasin Malik Saturday paid tributes to the three slain militants and two civilians who were killed during an encounter in Arwani area of Anantnag district on Friday.
“Blood of Kashmiris is being spilled over with impunity and no one among international community seems to bother or care about it, which is criminal,” Malik said in a statement issued to KNS.
“Illegal military occupation and continues denial of Indian leadership vis-a-vis the reality of Jammu Kashmir being a dispute is taking precious lives, ruining families and destroying peace and harmony of a whole region,” he said.
JKLF chairman who is currently under incarceration said that “humanity is being trampled in Kashmir but no one in the world seems to bother or care which is criminal.”
“Indian leadership is in a state of denial about the reality of Kashmir dispute and they want to suppress Kashmiri voice by military might and strengthen its military occupation by this suppression,” he said, adding that “this attitude of India is responsible for the loss of precious lives of humans in Jammu Kashmir and is destroying families and ruining peace and harmony of our region.”
He said that by pushing our young ones to the wall and denying them every space for peaceful struggle, India and the local government here have left no other means to them except sacrificing their lives for dignity and freedom and “we salute them for their valor and passion.”
